“My friends and I thoroughly enjoyed the program. We had the opportunity to work with street children and also do sight seeing. It was very rewarding teaching and playing with the children whom don't have much but have the biggest hearts. Volunteer Solutions took care of us and answered all our inquiries. They organised tours and made sure we had an enjoyable time. I enjoyed spending time with the children. They were very lovely and gave you all their attention. It was nice teaching them English Maths and General Knowledge and even though they didn't know English that well they listened and learned. Spending time with the children teaching them something new and playing games with them were the highlihgts of my trip. Simply just interacting with them and creating memories with them. I enjoyed learning Hindi with them and teaching them clapping games. I also really enjoyed going to landmarks such as the Taj Mahal and The Lake City Udaipur as I learnt about the history and appreciated the architecture. I really admire the Indian culture and hope more people take the opportunity to experience it as well.”

“Volunteering is a very rewarding option at any time in our lives. Undoubtedly a great experience of life personal and professional growth and enrichment. Far away he would experience such an experience again. My experience in the project was very gratifying since the staff of the hospital in New Delhi was very welcoming to me it was worth it completely very necessary to have a global vision of a country that does not have midwives as professionals for the integral care of the women couples or relatives throughout their life cycle however I would have loved to know the reality of public hospitals since I was in private hospital of Moolchand. Cultural religious interpersonal and professional exchange Personal growth Create opportunity to practice and develop social skills.”

“Excellent experience overall! Was able to learn much about the culture and way of life through volunteering at the preschool in Delhi and a tour of the city's historical highlights. Country co-ordinators were extremely welcoming and friendly and went out of their way to make me feel at home. Team co-ordinators were superb and always went the extra mile to make us feel at home cooking local food and showing us around Delhi. The project was excellent and a very worthwhile experience. Working with the children although tiring as they were always full of energy was extremely rewarding. Working with a bunch of very lively children who were eager to learn and always full of energy was the main highlight! Also the Golden Triangle Weekend Trip was excellent- was able to gain a taste of Indian history and culture and delicious food!”
