HELP!!!!!???? --- inspired by " The Beatles"

This is one of the songs appropriate for  Volunteers overseas...very meaningful.


HELP!!!!!?????

Yes!! the word HELP has been overused by almost  all of us  including international volunteers. I agree with Peter Woolf of VSO UK...quoting him....

"We’ve racked our brains and come up with the following list of Top 10 songs that sum up the volunteer experience or songs that should be on any volunteers ipod."

 I agree with you!!! your   suggested list of songs were really appropriate for us...different moods every hour of the day, every day of the week, every week of the month and every month of the year until we finish our tasks helping  and sharing our knowledge and learning  from everyone we meet  and  encounter  while we cross   this special road we have chosen.

I have LEARNED  that when i give HELP to  anyone including  a co-volunteer--- never expect  them  to be grateful, otherwise, you get frustrated.

Tastes of Ranchi, India

Another  Forest  Experience

I  had  the grand time touring Ranchi's Bharwan Birsa Biological  Park  which is about 18 kilometers away from the city proper. Maybe you will need  more or less three hours to see the entire park. It's not a mere park but  another forest of India where different kinds of trees  and wild animals considered as endangered species can be found.  Along the way, sights of spiders are awesome silently weaving their webs. Proper maintenance and cleanliness of the of the park  was very noticeable. I observed here in Ranchi  that the Jharkhand government gives importance in the  maintenance of   their forest parks aside from their military camps.

Many thanks to the family of  Harsh ( Indian national ), married to  Precious ( a Filipina) who  were  very accommodating "special tourist guides" with their  smart 2-year old daughter Nathania nicknamed Ania.

this tree guide is telling us which way to go....
