Jag tycker att han gjorde det fantastiskt och vill dela med mig till dig. Självfallet frågade jag först

I was going with my grandmother and her partners to the philliphines. My grandmother is a pastor at a big church called Arken and her partners work there to. They have over 100 infanthomes all over the world. I”m going there to see the other ways of life of peaple and help with the work to.

Before I landed I thougt that there was going to be a quite stable community like Sweden but that was not the case at all. It was as if the state did”nt have any controll and peaple worked with whatever they wanted to. Before i arrived i believed that peaple were going the be atleast quite healthy like in sweden but almost everyone i saw were poor.

Somedays we were at the church licening to peaple talk about Jesus and others we visited the most poorest parts of the philliphines with a group and gave out food and drinks. We drove to the infanthome by the garbidge tip that Arken owned and planned a party for the peaple by the tip. We had live dancers and gave out presents and delioucus food from jolly bee (simular to macdonalds) and of course drinks and watermelon. For some peaple it was the first present they ever got or the first hamburger they ever ate so it was really fun to see the happiness in there eyes.

The day after we took a boat to a small island called Velkon were 4000 thousand peaple lived on 20.000m2, There were really tight roads in the village and there was only one normal lavatory on the whole island. We visited a family there and saw how they lived and we lived like them for a day. We ate there favorite food dishes, One of them were squid that i really did”nt like but i told them i liked it because it was one of the finest dishes in the philliphines (squid) and most expensive.
We slept outside with out air condition so it was really hot (38 degrees at night), in the morning we took the boat home that took 5 hours.

On Wednesday we went to the garbidge tip and it was a horrible sight. You saw babys playing in the garbidge, you saw animals that were really skinny and hurt.
They had buildt there homes from garbidge, the smell over there was disgusting and that peaple made a living there was chocking.
They opened garbidge bags and looked for things they coulds sell for a liveing because no one has education.
We spoke to a women at the orfant home and she said that a man that works there makes 50 pesos a day thats 10kr and thats allmost impossible for you to feed your family. But in the philliphines it is six time cheeper to live in. Peaple at the tip lived in very small spaces there was one family that lived 7 peaple in a 10m2 house.

At the orfant home they gave free medication and education to the peaple at the tip so they can learn how to use a computer for example. Me and a friend called matthias that came a long teached some of them how to use it. He is a son of one of my Grandmas partners.

It was a really good thing to prao abroad because you learnt so much more and you felt that you really made a difference and did”nt just work at a shop you helpt hundreds of peaple. But the thing that i learnt was to apreciate the life in sweden because you can have a life that is so much worse.
