I stayed in Setana for around 1 and a half months and here I worked in my first volunteer project in a cow farm, I also helped to build a new room in my host's family's house. The people here was very nice and I had enough time to think about a lot of important things. I could also live in  countryside Japan... Very far from Tokyo...
