"It was fantastic. I really enjoyed myself. I was very pleased to use the holidays I had saved for two years to go. I found that volunteering gave me an understanding of China overall because I was working and getting to know the people and culture simultaneously. Working gave me an introduction to the culture and gave me a more enriching experience."Steve Hughes, Age 51, China Volunteer
