Our stay with Joseph was a great local experience. He and his family are lovely and was always engaged in accommodating us well and made us feel save and welcome. His kids are amazing as well! The family took us to their farm, the nearby Masai (non-tourist) village and the bigger towns close by. Unfortunately, we our stay wasn't timed well as we came to kibaha during the school holidays, so there were no teaching tasks for the moment. (So maybe discuss this with Joseph before your stay.)

My volunteering experience in Tanzania was made absolutely unforgettable by Jospeh & his loving family. They genuinely cared about my well-being & especially safety. During the initial days of my stay, they gave me the time & space I needed to adjust to the new environment. I had the pleasure of working with children at the daycare & patients at the hospital. I must mention the outstanding efforts of Flora, my host's wife, she went above and beyond to ensure my comfort & happiness during my stay. Overall, the connections I formed were heartwarming, and I will always cherish the memories.
