After three weeks of volunteering in Kenya, I have so much to be thankful for. My main role has been at a school, where I spend time caring for the children—helping them, playing with them, and simply being there. Their energy and smiles have brought me so much joy. I have also been living with a host family, and they have been incredibly kind and welcoming. The atmosphere at home is warm and loving, and it truly feels like home. This experience has already taught me a lot, and I feel very lucky to be part of it.

Where do I start? 🥹 My stay was exactly what I needed from my trip. I loved teaching children and the women empowerment program in particular. I felt cared for and safe throughout my stay. I wish I could stay longer, I 💯 recommend the home to any traveler coming to Nairobi.
