Volunteer Voices

It was an enriching experience in so many ways. The reason for making this trip with VFP was to truly experience the country and not just be a tourist. By living and working in Kaunas I was able to eat the local foods, some even grown in our garden, live the daily lifestyle of hand-washing clothes, cooking local foods (without a microwave!) and working in the church and garden using simple tools. The added plus was living with other work study people from other countries and building our own sense of community under the guidance of Juras our leader."
