Serving as a volunteer in Sri Lanka for 6 weeks was an interesting experience.After taking part inthe AIESEC this summer, the most interesting thing I would like to do was goingto Sri Lanka as a volunteer.
As I stepped off the plane and get out off theairport, Hashan, the team leader of Project AQUA and one of my best friends,picked me up and sent me to my hotel.
The climate in Colombo, which city Istayed, is really pleasant. In the first few days arrived, I met many teammatesfrom different countries, such as French, Belgium, Egypt, South Korea and etc. Althoughwe did not know together before, we became good friends soon after the icebreak.

We experienced many interesting things together in next 6 weeks, likemaking a beach cleaning, doing presentation about saving water in primaryschool, making Chinese food and having a trip to Kandy for Esala PeraheraFestival.
Time flied when we were having fun. We had to leave on 15thAugust, so we spent our last days in Sri Lanka with Hashan and his kind and hospitableparents.What a nice experience it was!
