IVHQ Victoria Falls Wildlife Conservation

Volunteering with IVHQ at Nakavango Conservation Programme was an amazing and life changing experience. On this program we stayed on a private game reserve, were able to live in nature and have a truly amazing and humbling experience. Living on the land the way we did made me realize everything I take for granted at home and how simple and amazing life can be.
I remember one day on a drive to the school, which we would volunteer with once a week, we drove through a little village that was on the way. Here was saw people using the land and living a very humble lifestyle. Seeing these happy people who clearly did not have the material items that I have, made me realize how I want to change my life and become a better person.
The actual work we completed on this program was physically demanding but you saw progress being made. The staff at Nakavango and IVHQ were sooo amazing, the accommodation and atmosphere were fantastic. There is a lot of activities to do on the weekends and this trip was a perfect combination of work and play. I had the best time volunteering there and I would 100% recommend this program.
