Bonyo is very friendly and attentive, trying to make things comfortable and find solutions, and to have good communication. He really made an effort to have a structured and organised schedule, yet unfortunately we didn't have the required equipment to design the website as planned, and further the school was closed for summer holidays. Since the location is near the sea, and in very beautiful native countryside, we enjoyed occasional trips and activities in the village instead. We strongly suggest volunteers to support with some fundraising before arrival. Sending best wishes!

Volunteering with Bonyo was a truly wonderful and inspiring experience. He is a kind, caring, and dedicated host who genuinely wants his volunteers to feel welcome and valued. He made sure everything was well organized and communication was always clear. I really appreciated his deep passion for supporting children and elderly people in the community. He is truly committed to making a positive and lasting impact. I highly recommend volunteering with Bonyo to anyone looking for a meaningful and authentic experience. Thank you for everything, Bonyo!

I had a meaningful experience volunteering at the project . The staff were incredibly Kind, welcoming, and supportive, and i truly enjoyed spending time with the children and learning about the local community. There were some differences between the listing and the actual experience, such as unclear working hours, meals not being provided as described, and some activities not taking place. After we shared our feedback, the host updated the listing by removing activities and adding extra fees, which i appreciated. Better communication and clear experience even better

She is a kind, respectful, and reliable volunteer who brings positive energy wherever she goes. She connected wonderfully with the children, engaging them through games, learning activities, songs, and conversations while showing genuine care and patience. She embraced our culture with an open mind, adapted well to our daily routine, and was always willing to help whenever needed. Any host can expect a responsible, friendly, and enthusiastic.

My experience with Victor was great. I really enjoyed meeting the kids and learning alongside them. They were very respectful and eager to learn. At first they were a little shy but after two meetings they opened up and the sessions became interactive. They even showed me around and took me to the beach for a swim which made the experience more memorable. I would however encourage Victor to make a couple of changes to the accommodation. While it wasn't the worst it could be better. Otherwise i enjoyed my stay and i would definitely go back and check on the kids.

I’m truly grateful for the time I got to host Sherril. She brought so much positivity, dedication, and warmth into our space. Always helpful, kind, and willing to share her energy, she left a big mark here. Hosting her was not only a joy but also an inspiring experience. Thank you, Sherril, for everything you’ll always be welcome back anytime! 🙏✨

Recommended experience for those who want to step out of their own comfort zone. It's an experience that enlightens you about many things, shows you realities very different from European ones, and teaches you a lot. You have to know how to adapt, you have to be flexible, and open to new lifestyles, food, and culture.
