Jovin is an amazing host! I had the best time here working in the school and teaching the children. Jovin and his family make you feel so welcome and became my home away from home. Whatever you need or wish to do they help and accommodate for. They are the absolute best and I can only recommend this project for anyone wanting to experience the real Tanzania xx

Jovin is a wonderful person. He invites you into his beautiful home and family with so much love and generosity. My heart is so full after this experience and my life is changed for the better. I will never forget my time in Tanzania. We had the best experiences, at the school and in the community as well as travelling Tanzania on a safari. Jovin and his family go above and beyond for your comfort and happiness. Everyone in the village is so kind and happy, it is amazing to experience the different culture. Jovin makes you feel so safe and truly like a part of the family. Thank you jovin 💚🖤💙💛

Volunteering in Chamanzi, Tanzania, was nothing short of amazing, and with our incredible host, Jovin. From the moment we set foot in his house, we were welcomed with warmth and hospitality, instantly making us feel like part of the family. His genuine enthusiasm and friendliness made our first World Packers experience truly unforgettable. The time spent with the children at the school was lovely. Teaching them basic English, engaging in games, and dancing. We couldn't have asked for a more for-filling experience, Chamanzi become like a second home! Nakupenda :)
