¿Qué haces en tu vida diaria?? Qué te gusta hacer en tu tiempo libre?
I am an Olfactive Expert…I develop delicious scents! I am currently developing my own line of luxury home fragrances called HIVE.
With the little free time I manage to carve out, I love to travel! I also enjoy visiting art galleries, live music, shopping. I love experiencing new restaurants…total foodie!
¿Cuándo empezaste a ser voluntario en Children's Home? + Ayuda?
Comencé a ser voluntario en Children's Home. + Aid eight months ago.
¿Qué te hizo querer involucrarte con Children's Home? + Ayuda?
I was adopted from Children’s Home & Sociedad de ayuda! I just wanted to give back to the organization that cared for me until I was placed with my incredible parents.
¿Cómo ha sido tu experiencia hasta ahora??
It’s been completely amazing and utterly rewarding! Here I was thinking of how much I have to offer and just the opposite…I’ve been offered so much! Lots of hugs, accidental mommy calls, sweet words, tons of giggles, brutal honesty lol and through these innocent eyes, the ability to experience old things as if they are brand new! Además, volunteering curbs my baby fever…lol!
¿Has aprendido algo nuevo sobre ti como voluntario en Children's Home? + Ayuda?
Absolutely! I’ve learned that my ability to love is matchless. I’ve learned that time is the most valuable asset I have to offer. I’ve learned that the more I give, the more I receive!
Que hace que vuelvas?
I’ve fallen in love with every little person I’ve encountered! And my bonus, I so enjoy the teachers as well! I hope to have made some life long friends.
¿Puedes compartir una experiencia de voluntariado que haya tenido un impacto en ti??
After switching classrooms (I went from 2-3 year old children to infants), I popped in for a visit to my 2-3yrs…it had only been 1 semana! When they saw my face, their faces lit up, they stampeded my way yelling my name to reach me with the biggest hugs!!! That was EVERYTHING to me! Meant so very much!
