That's me and my internship

Hi You,
looks like you have found my blog.
My name is Alicia Vergin and I'm 15 years old. My biggest dream is to go to a different country than Germany and work there in a project to help other people. One of my friends and I would like to do a exchange after school. We decided to travel to South Africa for a year and work in a religious organisation which was established by my friends uncle.

A few weeks ago I was reading a newspaper article about a internship for a group of teenagers to live and work in an organisation in Johannesburg. What a coincidence! A group of ten people get the chance to fly to Johannesburg and work in a children's home. In this home live 170 children of the age from three to eighteen years. The home was built in 1992 to fight against the rise of street children. The program of this children's home has three goals: prevention, the care of children and the aftercare. It want to save the children from death by starvation and give them new hope for the future.
In these two weeks us teenagers can accompany the team and have to do exercises to help the children.

I was so impressed by this internship so I begged my parents for permission every day. And finally I convinced my parents.
In two days I'll fly to Johannesburg with nine other teenagers to help the children.

So if I caught your attention, you will hear from me in the next weeeks to keep you updated.
thanks for reading
