Arusha, an unknown gem

Arusha is a vibrant city and you can't help but be changed when you volunteer here. The endless joy and energy of the children is infectious, and the support given by the local team allows you to give all your energy back to them. I spent 5 weeks here and was constantly busy with my program during the week, and then adventures on the weekend. The people are super friendly, and coming from Sydney it was a huge culture shock but managed to adapt quite quickly with the support of other volunteers and the local mummas.
