Once my two weeks were done I felt like family! The host Samme is well travelled and a very interesting person to get to know. We snorkelled most mornings and ate breakfast and dinner together most days. I met many people living and working on Rasdhoo and felt fortunate to be surround by a very authentic way of life. When I arrived the set up was slightly different than my expectations but Samme is a good communicator and we agreed upon expectations for food, sleep, and work. But it did not feel like a work exchange and felt more like staying with a friend and helping out when needed.

The island is beautiful but the experience was uncomfortable and poorly managed. The host had no real tasks for me and I spent hours doing nothing in a shop. The only room was behind the shop and I later found out he planned to share it with me, something never mentioned before arrival. I felt uneasy due to frequent comments about my image and blurred boundaries with no real cultural exchange. I didn't feel safe or respected. Though meals and snorkelling were offered, this didn't feel like volunteering. Happy to discuss if you message me!
