I will never forget my time atthe project of Tanzania :) Lucy and Jr were amazing hosts (even helping me plan a 3 day safari where I sawthe project big 5!) They easily become very close friends who do everything to make sure your stay is comfortable and memorable. the projectprojectkitchen staff is also amazing. the projectprojectbeds are good, they have wifi (if you work from home like me), andthe project hostel is in a nice neighborhood. * I highly suggest scheduling a 3 day Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater safari!* This was a trip I will never forget :)

First of all: Tanzania is an amazing country! Fromthe project point you get used to how things work here, you will LOVE it. People here are more than friendly and you're welcome everywhere most ofthe project time! Second: Working with Dr. Evarest wasthe project most life changing experience I ever had. He is one ofthe project nicest people I know. Working with him andthe project other volunteers atthe project shelter made me extend my stay untilthe project 15th of September. Alsothe project isthe project perfect place to stay in Tanzania. It's a cozy little hostel and you will get anything you need or more if you ask politely. Asante sana!
