What else ...
Recently, I participated in a European Solidarity Corps project for a year with a Portuguese association. We were a group of 12 volunteers from different countries. Even though we lived in three separate houses, we spent most of our time together, hosting parties at home or hanging out. Our tasks included coastal cleaning, gardening, working at an equestrian center, and assisting at a warehouse owned by the municipality. We had a fantastic time that all of us will cherish and remember.
When I was 18, I had my first Workaway experience with a Norwegian couple, Caroline and Ole Morten. I shared this experience with a friendly Irish guy. We spent three wonderful weeks together, and to thank them for their hospitality.
