One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I am trying to enjoy and take the best of every experience I do. What impressed me the most is probably the humanitarian mission I did in Peru in 2019. With 8 other friends, we went to an integration centre for abandoned minors. Our mission was to install solar panels and help with the management of the centre. It was an extremely rewarding experience and one that I am really proud of.
