Volunteer Life in Pictures #20: Sometimes when we are not building or teaching we ride bikes through the village, passing through from village to village. It's a privilege not many people get. Of course, some volunteers struggle to ride and we get flat tyres and passing trucks kick dirt and dust into our eyes, but it's still a special experience. Oh see those dark clouds. That means a crazy storm is coming.

Volunteer Life in Pictures #17: Being creative and flexible are characteristics we look for in all our volunteers. For example when cooking you may need to use old cement fence posts, chopped up bamboo sticks to skewer fish caught in the local lake and Tada! LUNCH. This is Damian doing the BBQ. Villagers will watch and laugh at everything volunteers do. So a sense of humour would be good to if you're interested in volunteering.

Volunteer Life in Pictures #16: At all our events we encourage children to get involved and experience the joy of moving people to action. Some of our volunteers are children, 6, 7, 10 year old kids that want to make a difference. In this picture a 10 yr old boy stamps one of our walkathon walkers in Tokyo, Japan. That's a pretty cool kid.

Volunteer Life in Pictures #13: It's not all about living and working in a rural Cambodian village. Volunteers also help with our fundraising and raising awareness events. This picture is of kids in a Japanese high school. It was a special events day BabyTree was involved in we taught kids about the world and BabyTree's amazing work. The kids were also amazing.

Volunteer Life in Pictures #12: On occasions we receive something beautiful from the children. We have been running English classes for 6 years now and it amazes us how amazing their English is. They have come a long way. Even though, we still cannot figure out the eyebrow comment in this letter 😉 But it is cute. (Names have been blocked out because of our Child Safe Policy, you understand)
