Description
饑饉三十 <拉近2CM的距離>
第一次赤腳行路，亦饑饉了7小時。這些體會讓我感受很深，但相比第三世界國家的人只是個小問題。希望下年繼續參加，不論是以參加者或是義工的身份。

This is my first time joining 30-Hour Famine as a volunteer and I find it very meaningful. Not only did I learn and experience about how people in underdeveloped countries suffering from food and water shortage, I also know more about how large-scale events such as 30-Hour Famine are organized. Although staying overnight for service is a bit tough, I still find this a rewarding experience.
