I spent 2 weeks with Elina, Jovin and Joseph in the local village of Chamazi. It was one of the best experiences of my life. From the first moment I felt at home and I never felt alone. If we wanted to do something on the weekend, the hosts were happy to do it us or at least help us arrange everything we needed (e.g. trip to Safari or Zanzibar). I really enjoyed teaching the children at school. It was mostly up to us what specifically and how we will teach them. Joseph or Jovin accompanied us to school every morning and picked us up afterwards. I truly recommend this experience to everyone! ♥️

My time with Linah at the house and working at the school was truly amazing! It's such a lovely project to work for where you truly make a difference and have an impact within the local community you're in. Linah is an amazing host who will make you feel at home, part of the family, is an amazing cook and always full of laughter and down for conversations. I can only speak very highly of this host and truly recommend it for anyone!!!
