An Amazing Experience




The most wonderful and meaningful experience I have never had when doing a course’s project. At the beginning of the course, I did not know that this experience was going to teach and help me to become a better person, the one who cares more about people issues and social problems. In our case, Francisco, Keneth and I, decided to help nine beautiful little girls who live in an orphanage which is located in San Lorenzo de Flores – Heredia. Sharing with them has been wonderful I could learn from their innocence, enthusiasm and way of seeing life in spite of the fact that they have suffered a lot. We shared with them beautiful moments like teaching them a recycling class, providing them didactic materials, and the most special for me was making them a party. The party’s experience was great. I will never forget it because it was amazing to see the girl’s happiness when they were eating the exquisite rice Francisco’s mom made and also when eating the sweet delicious cake, but the funniest and greatest part was when they struck the piñata and when we gave then a device to do bubbles because their face was showing a huge smile when they were picking up all the candies and blowing bubbles anywhere. All these little but sweet moments and details made me feel very happy because I was doing something to make them feel loved by someone and also to make them forget for a while all their problems and sufferings.
