What were your impressions of your destination?

A competely traditional Maasai village set in the heart of East Africa. Very welcoming people, and a beautiful area.

Was the work interesting and challenging?

I taught the women at the women's market, it was incredibly challenging, but the most rewarding few months of my life.

What was your accommodation like? Did you feel comfortable and welcome at all times?

I stayed in a basic guesthouse and ate with a local family. It was great, but no electricity or running water - which was incredibly easy to adapt to.

Were you happy with the organisation and the staff that were responsible for you during your stay?

Absolutely, a thorough briefing before I left, and in country management available 24/7.

Do you feel that you got value for money on the project?

Absolutely!

Would you recommend the project to others?

Yes
