ESC-Voluntary project in Kryoneri Korinthias / Birsu Ak

    This is one of the most beautiful places to live. Thanks to this project, we spent a whole month together with many sincere people. Every morning, we woke up and had a lovely breakfast together, then set out for the village’s volunteer work. 

    We made the pathways usable, and it was so peaceful to be in touch with nature while doing that. We learned how to properly work with gardening tools we had never used before. We explored the caves here, went on several mountain hikes, and encountered different animals. The best part was spending days with people from many different countries—playing games, traveling, working together, and introducing our cultures as if we had been friends for years. We tried to teach each other our native languages, show our traditions, and enjoy each other’s dances. Even though we met these people from the other side of the world for the first time, we experienced unforgettable moments. I tried many things here that I had never experienced before.

    I truly believe that being part of such a community is something everyone should experience, and I’m excitedly waiting for the chance to be accepted into another project again.
