It has been three months since I came to Germany. Sometimes I remember being scared to start a new job in a place I have never been. But in its place has come an abundance of comfort and pleasure. Today, it gives me great joy to be able to work in my current nursery school. It is a safe and comfortable working environment; the children who know what is right and what is wrong and can accept all education well; the colleagues who have become like a family; and the parents of the children who welcome me with a smile. Without my involvement in a volunteer program in Germany, I would never have experienced all this. I hope that everything will not pass too quickly and that I will continue to have joyful, laughing days.
