Program was fantastic! Too bad I couldn’t have stayed longer, I loved seeing both wildlife and culture.

I had lots of fun at both the orphanage and pre school. They have both taught me a lot about Tanzanian culture and lifestyles.

The town Mbeya is now a second home to me, and I feel fortunate having met many very nice people and have made many new friends.

I had a great time, and you all exceeded my expectations! I had an amazing time working at the Centre, and I plan to be back one day to finish what I started there...

I only wish my time here in Tanzania was longer. Its people, land and culture amaze me, and undoubtedly I will return someday.

I had a great time during my stay in Mbeya, Tanzania. I learned and adapted to a new culture, language, and met new welcoming people. My host family was extremely friendly and accommodating and I settled in very easily. I enjoyed my time in different cities and the safaris. I look forward to the next time I visit Tanzania.
