Life-Changing Experience in Bosnia and Herzegovina

Being a part of the youth development program in the city of Brcko was a watershed moment in my life. While I fully expected to go and add value in terms of previous work experience, I left completely astounded at how much I had learned about a new culture and myself as a person.

I would strongly recommend the program to anybody capable of travelling to Bosnia and Herzegovina by themselves because it is a perfect blend of personal discovery, contribution to society and learning about one of the most fascinating regions of the world.

In addition, the support staff at the local organisation are incredible people that have all forsaken better opportunities elsewhere because they have a strong commitment to what they are doing with the local people and that is perhaps the most inspiring part of all of this. Give everything of yourself and you will make friends for life.
