More from Volunteers

How is it possible, that one can gain so much knowledge in such a short time?

Nikola, from Czech Republic
LEVS in Switzerland
I was super anxious and super excited at the same time as I had never ever travelled alone in my life in such a different country as I come from a patriarchal society so this was a new leap for me.

Alpana Bhadra, from India
Seminar participant in Greece
It is a place where everybody’s voice is heard and respected. We don’t have to pretend to be someone else, neither the giant of our dreams nor the dwarf of our fears.
