After a week collaborating with the project, I can only say that I wish it had been longer. Soumaya the project an amazing host and a truly inspiring person. Not only does she irradiate passion for the mission of the association but she also truly cares about the well-being and overall experience of the volunteers. the project will teach about the importance of making an impact on your community and following your dreams. Moreover, Tunisian people are incredibly welcoming and full of energy. A 100% recommended experience!
