  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  Since we have a diversity of cultures, volunteers will learn new ones especially African foods, dances, games and native languages among many.
  They will have an opportunity to contribute with their hands and minds, to see our world and open our children's hearts to new and foreign worlds. They will be immersed in a community where English is well spoken, but which primarily uses Swahili. Our way of life may be different, but we will enjoy sharing it with you.

  Hébergement

  I believe staying together with our families in the same house will promote more cultural integration. Majorly, we would host up to three visitors in our house.
  
  Beds are equipped with a mosquito net. The door can be locked and no one else will be coming into your room.
  The water in the bathroom comes from a borehole. Electricity is stable with an extension cord in your room. There is good wifi signal in the room. We provide the bedsheets, but you should bring your own towel. We can help with washing the linens as well as your laundry.
  
  Food, safety and security are our greatest concern to our visitors.
  
  We have variety of food, some common and other entirely different. Depending on the volunteer, we'll adapt them to local food progressively as days go by.
