Christine Plaza – U.S.A

Volunteering at the English Camp in Brazil was so much fun.It was a challenging yet a rewarding experience for me. I came with no great expectations but to my surprise I was blown away by the beauty and positive energy flowing throughout the camp. I loved working with the kids and was amazed with their creativity, willingness to learn the English language and their curiosity about the American Culture. There was never a dull moment at the camp and the challenge came in physically keeping up with the kids. Nonetheless, I enjoyed interacting and getting to know each and every kid. Being around them brought me back to my carefree youthful days.I also got the opportunity to make good friends among the other leaders who were all so hospitable and welcoming. They were such great help when it came to showing us around the city as well. Coming to the English Camp was a great way to be introduced to the Brazilian Culture, not to mention a great way to taste various delicious Brazilian dishes. Overall, my whole experience at the camp and Brazil was priceless and unforgettable.
