Being a volunteer.  Cyprus was not what I expected, nor what was planned, it was not what I should have done but I did it. I made the journey of life that everyone expects a person to do: I was good at school, I passed my exams, I enrolled in a university that would give me a future job, I got good grades and I graduated. but inside I felt that something was missing. something new, something that was not the way your study choices lead you to […]
