This was my first time in Brazil, so volunteering at RioFlow felt like a perfect introduction to the country & Rio while being a small part of an NGO's ongoing work. Living in Vidigal was an interesting, eye-opening experience that shouldn't be romanticised, but I really enjoyed immersing myself within the local community. I loved teaching English classes for adults and going to Rocinha to play sports with kids of various ages. Grateful for the experience & opportunity to connect with the people I met. I recommend this to everyone with an open mind who's willing to learn & actively contribute.

I came here to teach English, which was my first time doing so. I taught children, teenagers, and adults, and it was both a lot of fun and very heartwarming.
Communication with Larry was excellent—he explained everything in advance when I arrived, and even after the first few days, he checked in to make sure everything was going well. He genuinely cares about the visitors. Most of the teachers and volunteers are in their early to mid-twenties, so you definitely won’t feel alone.
I loved the location because it has a stunning view of the sea—you can even hear the waves at night, which

It's perfect for getting to know and engaging with the Rio community. Learning about their way of life and culture. Almost everyone here radiates a joy that is contagious. I loved it here and will definitely be back!

My stay in Rio with the project was a life-altering experience in the best way possible! The people involved in the program as well as the people making up the community in Vidigal were full of life and it was such a joy and honor and to meet them. There was always somewhere new to explore, somewhere to dance, and the chance to learn about oneself in abundance. I think my students taught me as much as I taught them! It was so hard to leave this place and it will always have a place in my heart <3 see you soon Alzira!
