Diary of a Volunteer - Rural Pre-School and Community Work, St Lucia

Carolyn McNabb from Scotland shares her feedback from St Lucia, South Africa

Did you have any concerns before traveling to Africa? Can you suggest anything more that we could have done to ease these concerns? 
I think you could make it more clear how safe it is here as I was a little worried about how safe we were going to be, but when I got here you can see you are perfectly safe.

What were some of the highlights of your placement with us?
I think the highlight of my trip with you was the kids they are great and appreciate everything that is done for them, also it is so rewarding on a Friday to  hand out the certificates to the people who pass the HIV test and to know that you have made a difference to at least on persons life

Could you please explain your true feelings and thoughts about this Program?  What do you think you gained from your volunteer experience?
I think this project is great, you have done so much for the community and its clear they appreciate everything you have done for them and what is to come. I have gained so much from this project coming here is like going to another world and it opens your eyes to so much, I have loved every minute.
