The lush, serene setting of the Gumba was exactly what I was looking for. The accommodations and lack of privacy took some time to adjust to (and it was also my first experience with a non-Western toilet!), but the warmth and beauty of the landscape and the monks put me at ease and made the days fly by.

The teaching experience was brilliant fun and our initial concern having little teaching experience, was soon forgot about as we learnt how delightfully willing the children were at learning English. We strongly recommend bringing foreign currency, a world map English story books to entertain the children. The organization of the teaching within schools differs to be prepared to use your imitative. The syllabus was les strict than our education in Britain, so there is plenty of ...

Hands for Help handed over a Cheque to Taprang School

Image
Last week, we have handed over a cheque, worth 1550 Euro to a standing committee member, Bhim Kazi Gurung of Taprang School on behalf of our previous volunteer Mille Thorsan who raised that money from her friends and families. She visited to Taprang School last year, found a school building project. After returning home Mlle started a fund raising campaign in her initiative with families and friends. Bhim Kazi expressed a great thank to Mille and told that all the money will go to school fund and be spent for school building. Also we would like to thank Mille for donating a good amount of money to a needy school. Moreover all the people who donated and helped her to raise that money deserve a big thank.
