Last month, I took part in a volunteer activity in a village. We start off by bus at 9 o’clock. After three-hour bus ride, we saw the village surrounded by hills. It was very difficult to drive on the rocky road, but we got off the bus and walked there. The villagers standing by the road welcomed us warm. Cooked with those vegetables grow by the villagers, the lunch was tasted delicious. After lunch, we played game with the village children. Then they visited an old man living alone on the hillside. We sang a few songs, what made him really happy. I think when doing volunteer work, you help others and you gain happiness for return.
