Farewell to our Four Chinese Volunteers

Home Time for our Favourite Four

Saying goodbye is never easy, especially when it is to our amazing Chinese volunteers!! Each and every one of them has been a ray of sunshine and great to work with. During their time here they have contributed a lot to our website by translating it all into Chinese. This was a massive help to us as it will increase the number of Chinese voluntourists we get as well as broadening our audience.

Alongside all their office work, they have been amazing chefs. Despite only staying for one week, they cooked twice for us. Once, a yummy curry with rice and milk tea, and last night they prepared a feast for ourselves and some of the locals! This took a lot of hard work and preparation but it totally paid off!!

During their free weekend, the girls headed off to nearby Bordeaux. During their trip, they visited lots of sights, including the world famous alcohol museum (well, it would be rude not to!) They then rented a car and drove to the Dunes du Pilat where they saw the magnificent sand dune, bordered by both sea and jungle.

These four  volunteers will definetly be missed, and everyone at La Giraudière would like to wish them a safe flight home and their bestest wishes.
