What do our past volunteers say?

“I spent a month volunteering in Kenya in the childcare program. I am very grateful to have come to this place, I’ll take the best memories of the children and their smiling faces. I got a lot of appreciation from the women who run the project and that’s priceless. No doubt a part of me will stay back in this place. What an unforgettable experience!” Coti Visintini, Childcare Program Kenya

“Volunteering with children in Cusco was an amazing experience. The kids were incredibly sweet, full of joy and affection, and their smiles made every moment unforgettable. I stayed with a wonderful host family who made me feel like one of their own. The accommodation was comfortable, with a beautiful panoramic view, and the food, cooked by Cintia, was absolutely delicious. Their kindness and hospitality made my time in Cusco even more special. Cintia was especially kind and always ready to help with much tips, making me feel at home from the very first day. Rachele was also helpful and took the time to show me how to get around Cusco, giving me clear directions and great advices. This experience taught me so much about empathy, gratitude, and cultural exchange. The kindness of the Peruvian people and the breathtaking beauty of the landscapes made this journey truly unforgettable. I will always carry the memories of Cusco and its wonderful people in my heart..” Rossella C, Childcare Program in Cusco – Peru
