I've lived 3 months in Yangon, Myanmar. I went there to be a volunteer in an education project by AIESEC: To teach English to kids in a poor village near Bago City. I also worked a bit in Pomelo store, teaching English to the employees.
When I came back to Brazil I became an "Outgoing Experience" member, and then "Incoming Experience" (of Global Citizen Development Program) Project Manager (Talk and Change Yourself, Change Your Home projects). After that, I was OC Handover and Plan and Marketing Manager.
Volunteering program is so touching that I did it again in Concepción, Chile.

Here in Brasilia we always meet and take care of MANY exchange students! So let's meet up?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teaching English to kids in a monastery. It was in a small village without electricity near Bago city. Amazing project!

As I had never been abroad before, I wanted to do something different during my stay. So as I came in December and would spend the New Year's eve, I was looking for something awesome.
My friends told me about some extremely expensive parties in Yangon and boring ones. I said no and made them change their minds to do something brilliant: go to the beach. Until one of them says about hitchhiking and use public transportation to go there. The place is Ngwesaung beach and stays 6 hours by car. And yes, me made it. The BEST New year's eve of my life. The BEST January, 1st as well.
