The Experience

We have created beach cleaning festival event for every month as well as sub beach cleaning events every week and also at the mean time we have started to create a village for volunteers with lots of agricultural and farming activities to help volunteer traveler's explore the country while contributing to other volunteers. “A project by Volunteers for Volunteers” by teaming up with us you will be gaining a lot of cultural exchange too.
