I learned about MVU only about 3 weeks before it was going to take place, saw the kid's program and almost instantly booked tickets for my son and I.
Before MVU we had gone through a rough time with a huge loss in our lives that left my son feeling insecure, out of balance and in deep, but quiet pain. I had the intuitive sense that spending two weeks in a new city, exploring, being taught by world-class experts, and being surrounded by inspiring and life-changing people was exactly what he, what we needed.
Also, the fact that he could go to a conference with me when I had been attending so many events in my life without him, was a big gift.
After a couple of hours of feeling intimidated by all the English speaking wild other children, feeling insecure in his own English abilities and yes, asking me to go straight back home again, he completely blossomed. Day after day, he got more confident, running around Kultuurikatel with the other children, making friends for life and falling in love with the team.
He cried when we left and speaks of the next MVU almost daily now. Little Timmy, who knows Iron Man ;), energy healing, breath work and especially the field trips to the museums left a huge impact on him.
We had soooo much fun together and of course I learned a tremendous amount of life-changing concepts for myself (Astral Projection: WOW), made connections and get a renewed sense of hope and certainty that the human kind is changing.
I couldn't be more grateful to the MVU team for making this happen. THANK YOU
