“the most overwhelming, amazing experience!”

Volunteering in Ghana with Thrive Africa was just absolutely amazing, it's the chance of a lifetime to go out their and help those who need it! I met some amazing people while over there, volunteers and staff, I would definitely consider going again it made me appreciate everything at home so much more seeing how little they have but never complained once, there wasn't one thing I didn't enjoy throughout my experience (apart from being ill) the journeys we're very long but with a good set of volunteers bus journeys aren't so bad, the excursions are definitely worth it to go to the safari and Cape Coast beach is a beautiful way to end the trip.
Meeting the locals of Ghana and the children in the schools, orphans we met was overwhelming they never stopped smiling and it definitely puts a perspective on life :) the children loved seeing us there, all so welcoming and shown us their local dance. overall I cannot say a bad word about the whole trip, the staff, the projects, the excursions, the other volunteers, the locals, the children, it was all amazing and I would recommend it that any body goes if it's something you want to so then go for it you won't regret it!!
