This week we were at Paldini! We picked chestnuts, learned how to build mud/clay houses, and went to a cool medieval town. We met super cool volunteers who were helping us do all the tasks.
What were three of the top highlights this week?:
The 3 top highlights are defiantly chestnut picking, having no phones, and being in nature. Chestnut picking was calming and super relaxing. Having no phones makes everything easier, and it’s super nice to disconnected sometimes. Lastly, being away from the fast moving cities, slowing down in nature, and being at peace in the woods made it a memorable week.
What is something you or the group is challenged by this week?:
I think the group was challenge by the location we were at as we camped. Camping meant that some things got dirty. On the day days it rained, some people experienced some leaking tents. As we were cooking for ourselves this week, not everyone liked the food.
🌎 What are you most grateful for this week?:
What I’m most grateful for this week is the people at Paldini. They were so nice and welcoming! I feel like I really connected with them, even exchanging contact information at the end of the week! They were so chill, and some of the nicest people I’ve met. They really made my experience there way better.
