That's quite difficult because in the Orphanage I couldn't make any 'contact' with the daily staff. First of all they don't speak English, and with don't I really mean not one word, besides that they were not really taken with our help, so they acted really chilly towards the volunteers. The children don't have phones or internet, not really a surprise ;) so that's no option unfortunately.
I emailed my mentor in Vietnam about it, but he didn't responded yet! I could try the home organization in the Netherlands, but that wouldn't be the same.
Glad to hear you like replying in English, :) You are my best regular visitor ;)!!
