The experience of a lifetime

I chose Cape Town because I wanted to experience the South African culture and learn more about what working in a different country would be like. I gained more independence and learned more about what I want my future career to look like. What I loved the most about living here was being completely submerged in the culture by living in Observatory. I will miss the people I have come to call family. I stayed for about 2 months and I wish I could have at least stayed one more month. The VACorps staff was more than helpful and kind. I can’t thank VACorps more than enough for the experience of a lifetime. This is a trip I will never forget.
