I have been in India for Ten weeks and all in all my experience has been amazing. I worked at Mother Teresa’s Orphanage in Bangalore where the children’s are either mentally and physically disabled.
The host family has also been brilliant…. They looked after me well when I got ill, and if I ever got down my host father would always say some works of wisdom, which would pick me back up again. They were so very kind and I will miss them dearly…

We stayed in India Bangalore for four weeks and it has been an amazing journey. It was a really hard time in the beginning but ICDE has helped us through it. They really been there for us……
We have learned a lot and have been fun to experience this special town. Ever if it has been a hard time at Mother Therese we have had many happy moments with the children’s.
We have here for a month but we have grown as person and our self-confidence are bigger now.
We will always remember this journey and how nice ICDE have been to us!!!!!!

First of all I really appreciate this country. I love the Indian food (as a vegetarian India is paradise, because in my country it’s very hard to eat Veg and it’s very hard to be accepted by the non Veg people who represent 98.5% of the French population)!
I love the Indian culture and state of mind (all the colors on the cloths, on the wall, in the temples … colors everywhere that make the atmosphere so joyful and beautiful. The importance of the family. The «cohabitation» between Hindus, Christians and Muslims… etc...) I’m found of the Indian landscapes (Hampi!), and finally I love Indian people.
Most Indian people I met are very friendly and when you’re alone far from your home and family, it’s a relief to know that I can have the support of some persons here.
