I absolutely loved my time here. Every day I learned something new, and my house was so amazing. They treated me as if I was their own daughter, and loved me as my own mother would. The head of the school that I was working at was so hands-on and kind. Even though the school doesn't have everything, she always finds away, and I am so amazed by her and the other faculty. The school times are doable, and it leads you with a lot of open time to connect with other travelers!

I really enjoyed my time with Conjepta and her family. She is welcoming and caring. Unfortunately, I had to cut short my trip because I got sick but Conjepta & Marko took really good care of me, taking me to the doctor etc... hoping that I will get better soon. I only got the chance to go the school a couple of times but I really enjoyed my time there. The kids are eager to learn and energetic and the other teachers are really welcoming and want to make a difference. I thaugh the kids some basics in French, English and Maths. I would definitly go back if I get that chance again.

A great stay with Marko's family. Conjepta provides everything you need and her family is lovely and welcoming. The kids at Ejos school are eager to learn and very respectful and appreciative. A beautiful experience overall

Volunteering with the organization Organisation was eye-opening and rewarding experience. I began teaching the baby class but switched to Grade 5 with my partner, allowing us to connect more with the kids. We taught from 8 AM to 12:30 PM and return to our host family for lunch, then explore the city as the local library was often closed. The host family was incredibly welcoming—learning to make Ugali with Conjepta and exploring Arusha with her son Tyson were highlights. The school (Ejo's) and host family weren't connected but both provided a meaningful experience that we won't forget!

My experience with Whiterose exceeded expectations. Marko was incredibly attentive, and staying with his family was wonderful. The hospitality at his aunt's house was exceptional, and Tyson became a great friend. The only downside in the school volunteer work was a lack of clear communication regarding roles and schedules, which could improve with better coordination. I've made lifelong friends, especially Sushil, and cherished afternoons at the library with Mary. The country is a natural wonder worth visiting multiple times.
