I stayed with the project and the project for three weeks and loved every minute of it! The projects of the foundation are very meaningful for the local community and promote wellbeing for many families, children and women in vulnerable situations. The volunteer house is very cozy and spacious located in a lovely neighborhood. The people working in the project have taken me as a part of the family and shown me around town and beautiful places i would't otherwise as a tourist have even found! I will come back as soon as possible.
