Activities i am interested in:
I'm most interested in volunteering with an NGO this summer.
However, my favourite hobbies are anything music related and playing casual sports, so I'd love any activity involving either of these.
Description
Hi! My name is Jessica, I'm a Canadian currently in university.
We have nice long summers breaks between university years, so I usually try to get up to as much adventuring as I can during that time.
My main pass-times are music and trying whatever new activity I can. It's a struggle to avoid singing, strumming a guitar, or playing piano. If there's a random dance class, workshop, or expedition, you can count me in :)
I am three out of four years through a mathematics and statistics degree, so I'm particularly looking for volunteer opportunities where I could potentially use academic skills to help out (preferably with an NGO).

This is a unique organization in that there is a strong emphasis on getting to know the refugees in the camp, and making sure supplies are distributed as fairly as possible.
