Community Development Volunteering in Luang Prabang, Laos

Highlights definitely included getting to know the Laos people and culture. Spending a couple days a week helping out at the local school and then the other few days during the week making concrete bricks in preparation for a new school. Everyone was so kind and welcoming, and the culture in Luang Prabang is so rich, it was very immersive and very worth it. The work was tough in the heat, but we had a good team of volunteers and it was very rewarding after each day, an experience I will never forget. The local team were amazing! Mickey, Ticky and Onsee: they were beyond supportive and made the time enjoyable. Plus the cook did an amazing job at feeding us - I miss the food already! The accommodation was also very comfortable.

New culture, new people, New Life. When we exchange our perspectives, ideas and plans to make a world better place for everyone. It's good to go different places it helps me view life in many directions
