EIL Volunteer Ciara Spain shares her experience as a female volunteer in Vietnam with KISS magazine, as part of Plan Ireland's "Because I am a girl" Campaign.
As
my time here is coming to an end I'm in the process of writing up
profiles on
each of the children for future volunteers. I'm putting together details
such
as how to communicate with the children, tips for feeding them and what
games
they like to play. It has been a lot of fun preparing these profiles as
I've
realised how well I've gotten to know them over the last 2 months and
the
children have really enjoyed getting their profile pictures taken as
well!
