Review

Absolutely incredible and life-long enriching experience. The nature and landscapes are stunning - and I am so glad I got the privilege and opportuntity to widen my horizon by travelling to a world so different to ours (Europe). My two leaders were so supportive, them and my group turned some challenges into wonderful experiences. I also went through alot of personal growth in these 3 months and had many insights through being so far away from home, which is also why I would recommend this trip so much!

Would you recommend this program?
Yes, I would
Private Note to Provider (optional)
The Uganda homestays (distance + safety) should definitely be worked on and refined (East Africa B at least). Also, maybe you should think about how to handle the lewa orphanage better.... many children were seeminlgy distressed when we left. It doesn’t have to be eliminated out of the itinerary, but it then maybe should be emphasised to the ARCC students to not interact as much with the children, and it for sure shouldn’t be part of the work there. We are only travelling through there and it causes too much distress for the children. Thank you
