What our volunteers are saying
Lydia MacLeod | Canada
I wouldn't trade this placement for the world right now. I am learning not only about this country, but about my home country and myself as well.
Ollie Masterson | UK
I felt that it was time for a completely independent adventure, and I was keen to hopefully better someone else's life. The experience was absolutely life-changing.
Steph Bewski | Canada
Exploring this breathtaking country and working together with other incredible volunteers from around the world has given me the opportunity of a lifetime.
Janet Patry | USA
My project exceeded my every expectation - this was without a doubt the single greatest experience of my life!
