I had an incredible time at the lake with the team. Their warmth and kindness made me feel so welcome. We shared wonderful conversations and moments that I'll always treasure. Thank you it was a truly special experience. I stayed with David and his family for one month to work in the hospital. I had a very good time there. David’s family is very welcoming and friendly and I always felt very well taken care of. The house is very nice, the food is great and in the weekends we had time to explore the rest of Malawi which was amazing. Malawi is a beautiful country and the people are wonderful. Working in the hospital was a very interesting experience, I definitely learned a lot and I’m very happy that I got to have this experience in through David’s ngo. The people at the hospital were once again very friendly and welcoming. The other volunteers that stayed at the house while I was there were also great and I had a good time with them which made my experience in Malawi more memorable. So if you wanna learn about the healthcare system in a different country while staying with the kindest people I recommend this work away.
