Living in a house of their dreams!
What would be the house of your dreams? A four winged mansion estate, a modern condo overlooking a spectacular view or maybe just a nice three bedroom house in a swanky suburb?
For many of the families that Volunteer for the Visayans (VFV) serve, the house of their dreams would be one where they escape the rain dripping in through the cracks in the ceiling, the kind that doesn’t shake in heavy winds and the kind that has a sanitary human waste disposal system – and that’s exactly what we are trying to give them!
Let me first start off by saying I am in no way an ‘experienced’ traveler. Being born and raised in Toronto, Canada, I had no idea what to expect from this trip. I knew a couple of past volunteers that shared their experiences prior to leaving, but nothing could have prepared me for what was in store.
