Review for Alliance Nepal, Pokhara, , Nepal
Volunteering with Alliance Nepal was one of the best experiences of my life. Last year I spent 3 months working at Bindhyabasini School and living with Krishna, Bimala and their delightful children. During my time there I fell hopelessly in love with the country and its people, made lots of new friends (local people and fellow volunteers), learned how to make the best of a much simpler life, rediscovered the joys of teaching and hopefully made a small difference to the lives of some very special children. Many thanks to Krishna for welcoming me into his family, to Alliance Nepal for being so efficient and supportive, to my colleagues at the school for accepting me as a member of their community, to my students for being so enthusiastic and receptive and to my fellow volunteers for their friendship and good humour.
