Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
The cultural exchange can be so rich when we do something helpful to someone who we don't expect too much back, like children and simple people from a small village in Tanzania.
We are sure all the volunteers can have a great time with this so rewarding experience.
The volunteer will also have opportunities to learn to speak swahili language, to cook local food also will experience the realy local life and culture while visiting places they ordinarily not visit.
The volunteers will also have a chance to have fun with our neighbourhood and other people in our village.
