I loved it at Mulala! Johannesburg and Amanda is two amazing people and always made me feel at home. The project is so interesting and you learn a lot. The property and environment is beautiful and it's such a blessing to wake up right by the sea. I would definitely recommend this place and opportunity!

We had the most AMAZING time volunteering here! From the moment we arrived in Nacala, we were treated as family and felt so comfortable. The house we stayed in is beautiful and has all the things we need like a well-stocked kitchen and an AC unit. We worked on a variety of projects like creating a website for the MPA, helping out with the kids in the school, and building things around the property like a swing. I highly recommend volunteering with Amanda and Johannes: the work is great, the people are nice, and you will have so many incredible experiences... We couldn't be happier!
