참가동기, 참가 전 준비, 워크캠프에 기대했던 점

I participated in this workcamp with a lot excitement, expectations and clear purposes. My purpose was to travel, learn more about languages and cultures and practice Portuguese.
Before departing for the workcamp, I packed my luggage according to what was suggested in the info sheet and it worked out just right. In the workcamp, i expected to make friends from different culture, learn from each other and socialize with the locals.

현지 활동이야기, 특별한 에피소드, 함께한 사람들(참가자, 지역주민)

Our role in the workcamp was to prepare the props for the street theatre performance by the patients of rehabilitaion for disabled people. The most beautiful moment for me in the workcamp was to see how the people there were so happy, kind and welcoming to everybody even if they had certain disabilities.

참가 후 변화, 배우고 느낀 점, 하고 싶은 이야기

I have definitely learned some life lessons from this workcamp. I am so convinced that happiness comes from within yourself. We are way less grateful for all the things we have in our life. We need to start focusing on the good things and help each other as much as we can with open heart. Also, travelling opens up your mind in ways that we never thought of before.
