Now I find myself in a small village close to Budapest. Here life is completely different. I have been here for a week already and know very few people of the village - there were no official introductions or speeches during mass and I blend in with all the others.
It is a nice village made up of big, well kept houses, but yet from what i heard, even though they have all of this most spend the days working, some are going through divorce and children are left with us at the playschool all day. All is well and good though because the school is good and they are treated well. I also am slowly caring for the children and enjoy their company as usual more than i enjoy that of adults.
so here i am volunteering in a play school, which i thought at first was one equipped for disadvantaged children, just as i thought this was more of a slum sort of village but i was wrong and so i was initially disappointed. Now i came to realise that i might not need to give these children as all the other children i previously worked with, but here i can still bond with them, because children are children and they use very specialised therapy for certain children which is very interesting to see and learn.
I will therefore use this stay to gain as much experience to help me with the children i will be working with in the future. in particular my little friends in bukuumi, which i will be going back to. I miss them.. my little ones..but these will help me fill the void whilst im here.
