From day one, everyone at the host treated me like family. I had amazing conversations, unforgettable moments, and made lasting friendships. I also felt super safe and embraced by the community. During my time here, I learned about Turkish culture, explored the language, and made new friends. I loved that I could communicate in English and was able to connect with so many people on a deeper level. Gaziantep is a beautiful city itself and the people are very kind! I'd highly recommend this experience, it truly changed my life. Thank you, Fouad, Nada, and everyone at the host!

Volunteering at the host was an amazing experience. I had the chance to teach English, which was both fun and rewarding. The students were eager, friendly, and easy to teach. Meeting volunteers from different countries was a highlight, as we shared and learned from each other's cultures. Big thanks to Fouad and Nada for the surprise birthday party. I am also grateful to the reception team, Yunus and Ceyda, for their warm welcome and for making me feel at home. Heartfelt thanks to the teachers: Evo, Norah, KJ, Salma, and Mustafa for being so friendly, helpful, and supportive.
