It was a great experience to be the project's first volunteer in Dar es Salaam. With the help of Jovin he also learned a lot about being a host. They took care of us when I was really sick for example and they tried everything to help me to get better. The Project in the school was amazing and we achieved a really great impact. the project is a really kind- hearted, funny and always positive person. the project can still improve in communicating with the volunteers about informations we need. Other than that i am really grateful for this experience and i am so proud of our social impact in Chamazi.
