My Nonprofit Reviews

Going to Guatemala with Xela Aid was a life-changing experience for me. I was able to discovered the essence in my life which is to help others the way I was helped, receiving and giving love. Once I learned to love others, I learned how to live. At Guatemala there was so much love to give that we ended up receiving more. I learned that people is what makes places amazing, and at San Martin Chiquito people are the most loving and caring people I ever met. Since day one, we felt at home with people that learned to love us the way we are.
I learned this saying in a restaurant in Antigua: "the most difficult thing to open is a close mind." and going to Guatemala helped me broke part of my close mentality. The perspective of my culture was changed, and it will help many of us who decide to go back or do a humanitarian act around you (it does not have to be outside your neighborhood to do this) to transform your worldview.

There is to much to say about going to another country that if I was to write most of the experiences in here I will have to include an essay format review, so what many of us need to do to understand many behaviors of people is to go out and explore.

Definitely, if you have the chance to go to Guatemala with Xela Aid, please do it
