er: Fantastic. Tell us more about you r volunteer work in Balen.
Ben: I worked at a school with 350 students. The school is very simple. There arent a lot of books, pens or pa per. Although the students study Chemistry and Physics, there isnt any Science equipment. But one thing the school does have is a small garden. The children love playing sports in the garden. They can play football, netball or volleyball.
Interviewer: Interesting. And what is the village like?
Ben: Balen is in a very beautiful area. But there is no running water, very little electricity and no shops in the village. I shared a small house with a local teacher and his family. There was no bathroom and no fridge.
Interviewer: So, life was difficult?
Ben: Not really. It was just different! We washed with water from the river. We ate a lot of rice, beans and cabbage, but it was always delicious. In the evenings, there was no TV or Internet, so we sang songs outside. The community was very friendly.
Interviewer: So, what was the best thing about your trip?
Ben: Well, the South African coastline was amazing. And I saw wild dolphins, which was a dream come true. Also, I learned a lot of new skills from teaching. But the highlight of my trip was spending time with the students. They were wonderful people. I really loved them.
Interviewer: Thank you Ben for sharing your experience.
