MY INTERNSHIP IN MEDINA RIVER NATURAL AREA

In the first two weeks of August the IALS going all groups went volunteer to various tourist sites in San Antonio. I happened to work at Medina River Natural Area with my peers, Ramon, Nico, Mariela, Jose Miguel, Fernando. In the apartments we were picked up by a bus to go to work from 6:45 to 11:00 am after we returned to the apartments. On the site these two weeks we learned how to make a garden in the form of a bird, and I liked this idea. but field working was with not yet planted the flowers but the soil was new . After other people from the office told they would plantain February or March, the soil where it will plant flowers and this clever. Sir Eduardo who was in these weeks working together with us, a very nice person. Also I went fishing with my partner in the Medina River. We caught some little fish , as I could get a minnow from the river I finally felt happy to catch a fish in San Antonio, Medina River, very beautiful site, has different animals. For example I could see turtles, rabbits, squirrels, deers, various birds and others that exist on this site. At the end of two weeks of volunteering the last day we met with people working in the office of Medina Park where we shared watermelon. After that, we were awarded volunteer certificate two for the weeks we worked on Medina River Natural Area. This work a nice experience. I gained more confidence because I could talk to my peers with whom I worked, know more about their countries. Can also create a similar garden in my community, but I would be much better off where no one would speak Spanish. But this experience could help the people of my community.
