Pay your fees, get your shots, and IVHQ will take care of all the stressful stuff so you can focus on fully immersing yourself into one of the most beautiful experiences of your life! I volunteered on the construction project in Tanzania and couldn't be happier! The volunteering was worthwhile, essential, and allowed me to truly dive into the local scene and culture and associate with the people of the country. I helped finish the construction of a home that will serve a family for generations to come! While renovating a school bathroom I was able to associate with the kids as well. Those were the most genuine smiles I've ever seen and shared! I was also able to take advantage of a safari and create unforgettable memories! I was also able to spend time with the kids at a local orphanage. The fellow volunteers and local organization coordinators of Tanzanian Host Experience were incredibly caring and thoughtful of my wellbeing. They were some of the most heart-filled people I have ever met! As a solo traveler they quickly became like family. Initially, it was nerve racking to embark on this journey but then SO sad to leave when my time was up. This experience was a true reminder of what actually matters in life and where real happiness is found. It was transformative. I am forever grateful! Overall, if you are reading this and questioning whether or not to go and volunteer, take it from me, this was the best few weeks of my life! So take courage and go for it! You will not regret it for a moment. Asante!
