Where in the world do you want to make a difference?
”Absolutely amazing project. I would definitely recommend! I definitely felt like I made a difference within the local community, my only compliant is I wish I could’ve stayed longer to volunteer more! The people at the volunteer projects and the local community were so grateful for our help and also our time. The accommodation hosts offered us great food and were always happy to provide for us! The were so lovely. Perfect hosts!”
