Volunteering in Ada Foah, Ghana

My volunteer experience was absolutely amazing. I never felt unsafe and the project leaders were very helpful, professional and fun. They weren't really only my project leaders, I also considered them my friends.

I really feel like I made a difference and that this project matters. I also had a lot of fun, I got to travel during the weekends and I really loved going to school, teaching and coaching football. I felt very welcomed.

The only downside might be the lack of food during dinner time. The food was usually very tasty, but I often went to bed hungry because the cook didn't prepare enough food (might sound sarcastic considering that I went to teach kids every day that didn't have half of what we had, but it was still frustrating as we had already paid for that meal).
