What an unforgettable experience I had. Ghanaians are very welcoming. Anyone you meet on the street is friendly and ready to help you. I am definitely coming back to this wonderful country.
Thank you very much everyone at RVO. I appreciate your help so much. I will never forget you all especially Mr. Richmond who I hanged out with at the bar most weeks. One Love

My volunteer experience was absolutely amazing. I started having a good feeling about my stay from day 1 of my arrival at the airport when the pickup staff was there on time and transferred me to hotel, I felt so safe and during the early day’s orientations about the project, people and the language and cultural program. etc.
Bernard was responsible for my field activities. The first week, Bernard brought me everywhere and answered to all my needs and questions. The language and culture programmeis very helpful, especially if you’re staying for more than a month. Ghanaians are very happy when you can say a few words in Twi.
Ghanaians are amazing people. They welcome you with open arms and make you feel at ease. The school kids are hilarious and yell “Obruni” (white) every time they see you. The teachers were very helpful and supportive, kind and tolerant, I almost felt like home after a couple of weeks. Everything is chaotic in Ghana but simply accept it and open your mind and you will have no problems fitting in. Ghana is safer to walk around done my home country.
The accommodation on the ground is rather basic but compared to everyone else in Ghana it’s almost luxurious. Sure, there was running water at my hostfamily almost everyday which made me had a good shower. Aunty Millie, the cook, prepares very good meals. Ask her for Fufu with red stew: it was delicious. The pancakes, red-red (plaintain and beans), egg sandwiches and spring rolls are excellent as well.
I recommend RVO to everyone. I really had a life-changing experience and met wonderful people. The first few days are hard, but as long as you open your mind and don’t give up, you’ll be just fine.

What do you think should be done to improve our program : I think you don’t have to change anything but it would be okay if you can add more weekends to the guided tours

Hello
I am Maria and I am writing on behalf of my boyfriend and I ,. We just return home from a wonderful 3 weeks trip which includes 2 weeks of community orphanage and teaching work ,sports and other activities we took part in. The kids at the orphanage and school were amazing . we miss them already. The hotel accommodation and bus during the tour was great.
I must say a big thank you to everyone who was involved in the organization of the program. they did a great job bringing us all the eleven participants from different countries together . We have made new friends now . We really enjoyed the tour part of the program. This program was safer and successful so I recommend to everyone.
Thank you all.
