Big Congratulations to Lara from the Netherlands for winning the Workaway Photo Competition of January 2017 with her brilliant shot, “Give time, receive happiness” taken in Hsipaw, Burma.
With an unpretentious backdrop we really love the way the photographer captured the beautiful moment of sheer joy, at just the PERFECT timing. The bond between the volunteers and the kids is what created those smiles, laughters and priceless memories. It’s also a great reminder about what we truly believe in; to love, to give without expectation, and to continue to live a lifetime of adventure! Well done again, Lara!
