Review

I went to Ghana last summer for 4 weeks and it was the most incredible experience of my life! Words can't really explain the feeling you get knowing your volunteering helping others. Seth and colby were amazing they become second parents your African mum and dad they take such good care and do there absolute best to insure all volunteers are comfortable and happy in their stay they go beyond to make sure everything is perfect! Nothing can prepare you for the emotions you gave once you get out there weather you decide to go on the medical project or the orphanage project it's just an experience which really makes you realise and appreciate everything in life! You share a house with some amazing people you create really special friendships that last a lifetime you make some amazing memories with some of the most loving people in Africa. Being in Ghana was so refreshing it was just such a positive happy atmosphere everywhere you go the people are all so friendly and make you feel so warm and welcome where you go! The trips you can go on the weekends are also incredible visiting cape coast, the safari and much more! Seriously had the best time ever and would seriously recommend to anyone weather it's 2 weeks or 4months it's something you would never regret personally I'd recommend that you go longer than 2 weeks because there is so much to do in Ghana the longer your there the more you get to bond with people get a real feel of there culture and feel even more like you apart of one big family. Volunteering in Ghana is so rewarding it's just amazing and everyone should do it! Defiantly be returning this year myself so get yourself to Ghana you'd be crazy not too!
