Days to count - Jack Aigi & Desire Mihigo

Another chapter to remember with 12 people from different countries. Summer is knocking at the doors for everyone, volunteering isn`t only about what you give: it´s also about what you gain, new experience, skills friendship, and perspectives. More than three weeks we have being in different camps, hobby horses aged people 7 to 14, Kokkola camp aged 9 to 12, and sport camp aged 12 years. Being with kids during volunteering feels enjoyable and rewarding, children are energetic, curious, and fun to spend time with. I feel happy when l can help them learn, play and grow. It also help me improve my communication, patience and teamwork skills. Being a volunteer feels practical and rewarding. I gain new skills through real experiences. Become more confident and learn from the people around me. Its helps me to understand things better than just reading or listening about them.
