Volunteer Voices

For work I was in a small town with six others - four from Europe and two from South Korea. The town had a population of about 150, was in its own fjord, and at the end of a 45 mile dirt road. Once I arrived there it was so peaceful and beautiful that I did not have an urge to go anywhere else. Everybody else must have felt the same way because nobody left for two weeks. Our accommodation was excellent. We had a guest house to ourselves with seven beds, two bathrooms, kitchen, dining area and comfortable living room. This was a "hiking camp" and our work consisted of marking the hiking trails.”
