I want to talk about VINN, a kind and talented man I met during a volunteer trip with my school group last winter in a small village. He was one of the local people having us with the activities. VINN is a very good at making things by hand. He can create toys, small wooden chairs and even simple table. He used a wood paper and clothes to make beautiful things. I was surprised that he could make a toy car from only wood and bottle caps. I saw him working many times. He was fast and careful. The toys he made were very cute and safe for children. The kids loved his work and played with the toys every day. His handmade furniture was also strong and useful for the local families. I really admired VINN because he used his skills to help others. He never asked for money and always had a smile on his face. He told me that he just wants to make children happy. This experience taught me that helping people doesn’t always need money. Sometimes skills and kindness are enough. VINN inspired me a lot during that trip.
