I heard about the volunteering programmes abroad and how it can help me as a person to get over my stress and clear my head, so I decided to volunteer in Sri Lanka. I was in charge of conducting English language sessions for the orphans, and vulnerable mates at the SOS village in a city named Galle. Mutual trust premised upon friendly environment allowed me to substitute English language sessions for fun activities to bond further. Experiences of my Sri Lankan odyssey would be incomplete without a worthy mention of my colleagues who belonged to eight different nationalities. Personally, I am more than convinced that the 45 days in Sri Lanka were more fulfilling and rewarding than anything else.
