What is your motivation(s) to come to Nalanda as a volunteer?

1. “My eagerness for studying Buddhism” → “my eagerness to study Buddhism”
• “Eagerness to study” is more natural than “eagerness for studying.”
2. “Sharing some experiences of cooking and shopping” → “share my experiences with cooking and mindful shopping”
• “Some experiences of” sounds awkward. “Share my experiences with” is smoother.
• “Mindful shopping” makes it clearer that you’re talking about making thoughtful choices.
3. “I think cooking and shopping wisely is very important” → “I believe that cooking and making wise shopping choices are essential”
• “I believe that” is a more formal and natural way to introduce this idea.
• “Making wise shopping choices” is clearer than “shopping wisely.”
• “Essential” sounds stronger than “very important.”
