“Our coordinators were lovely, very friendly and efficient”

General Impression

Overall Rating:    7 / 10

An experience I feel really lucky to have had.

Country

Great culture, very accessible for a solo traveller and very friendly local people. It felt very safe and secure and had a lot to offer, with many places to go and see in my free time.

Project & Staff

Our coordinators were lovely, very friendly and efficient. They answered all our questions, made sure we felt supported and aided the whole trip very smoothly. Our local partners we volunteered with were also lovely. It would have been nice for slightly more planning to have been in place for what tasks they wanted us to do as I felt some time was wasted with uncertainty and I didn't get to do as much work and make as much of an impression as I wanted to.

Tips

Throw yourself into it, don't be afraid to use your initiative and get stuck in, especially if you are only there for a short amount of time.
