Please Write about R. V. O – Ghana and staff
Richmond is a very genuine, kind man and put so much effort into organizing activities /trips etc. for us. Boat is my hero. Ghana is an amazing country, and I won’t forget the things I’ve seen and the experience we all shared here. It’s so different to Ireland, and the people are so good natured. I definitely hope to come back soon.
Please write about your Host Family
Our host family were such sweet, warm-hearted people and looked after us so well. They cooked delicious food for us, cared for us always and just had a great laugh with us. I’ll miss them so much.
Please kindly write your overall experience in Ghana below:
Arriving to Ghana, I really didn’t know what to expect. It was hard to ease into the culture and way of life at first as it’s so different to home but our host family and R.V.O were so warm to us that we settled in quickly, and were able to gain so much from the country. I now see that although poverty thrives and the schools and orphanages are in great need, there are so many beautiful things to see and amazing cultures to experience
Could You Please tell us how best we can improve on our programs:
I would have loved to do more volunteer work. I will come back to do more volunteer work .
