  We have plenty of water for bathing and doing some laundry.Incase the volunteer wants washing done for them we have a lady who will wash for our visitors at a small fee which will be agreed on arrival.
  In Taru we experience hot weather during the day at times we have cold nights.In most cases the sky is full of beauty with its stars.This can be a good experience to see the stars at night.The neighbourhood where the young school is situated is welcoming.If the visitors wish to visit our children during the were the host will always organise.As a host should know we respect the visitors privancy.Incase they want to smoke ,take alcohol they should know we are not against their wishes.
