To be honest i would find it difficult to find enough words to describe how great an organization voluntario global is! I volunteered with them for just under a year and the hardest part of leaving Argentina for me was not that i was going to miss the incredible steaks and beautiful city that buenos aires is but saying goodbye to the amazing friends i made that do such great work in both La Villa Soldati and in La Boca.

I volunteered mostly in Soldati and it really is an amazing experience to get to know the kids and the local people who live and work in these neughbourhoods. It makes it even more worthwhile when the next time you return, locals on the street recognise you and the kids run to you to give you a big hug!

I think what makes the organization so special and such a great place to volunteer is that it was set up and run by a lady who volunteered like us for many years in the neighbourhood. She became friendly with the local people from the barrio, and now jointly with them they run everything together. This helps ensure that all best interests remain focused in these neighbourhoods!

I cant wait until i return to argentina to see everybody again!

Un beso de Jamie!
