Volunteering with European Solidarity Corps

I’d always been interested in human topics and perspectives, and also in helping others, thats why I studied psychology.

I made a gap in Canary Islands year during my bachelor and that changed my live and perspective. After that I discovered that what I want to learn from people is not only in the books.

I want to make connections, discover world through the people living there. 

Thats why, after finishing my bachelor, I decided to unite my passion about human learning and my desire of help by volunteering here in Lithuania.

Now I´m in Lithuania for 4 months and I can say that volunteering is a whole experience that challenge you in ways you was not even expecting: you can doubt about your purpose, about your path and, sometimes, even about yourself. 

But that is the most interesting part of this trip. Through volunteering you don’t only get into know others, you get into know yourself. 

Of course you can do this in so many ways, this is not the only option. But, volunteering abroad push you to do that. Going out of your country, your social net and your regular rhythms push you to rethink about what you are doing, what you are thinking and, in the end, push you to meet with a deeper version of yourself.
