Overall rating of your Let's Go Tanzania internship: 5 out of 5 stars.

Tanzania and its people really stole my heart. The people are very friendly and warm and are always open to help you. It's super easy to meet new people and you'll soon make new friends. Everyone wants to have a chat with you and there is always a lot of life on the streets. Tanzania itself has a lot to offer and there is something for everyone to do. In addition, I found nature really beautiful and I did not expect it to be so green. The temperature in Arusha is really perfect, it doesn't feel too hot and so handy when you still want to do all kinds of things.
It was an experience I will never forget and from which I learned a lot. I think doing an internship abroad gives you certain insights and experiences that you can only get in this way. You find yourself in a completely different world than your own, which allows you to look at situations from different perspectives, and I think that is very valuable. You broaden your view of the world and no longer see everything we have as 'normal'. This journey has helped me to discover in which direction I want to work in the future.
I think that it is very pleasant for many young people to embark on this adventure through Let's Go Africa because it certainly helps you with the right preparation.

Overall rate of your Let’s Go Ghana experience: 5 out of 5 stars

Score of preparation, organization and guidance by LGA: 5 out of 5 stars

Score of introduction, supervision and guidance of local partner: 5 out of 5 stars

Ghana is absolutely amazingly! As the rumour, it’s indeed home to the most welcoming people that I have ever met. Going above and beyond to meet every one of my needs.

• What did you think of the project and the partner organization in Ghana?

The partner organisation is inspirational and the work they do to support previous child labourers in their educational endeavours is really positive. I loved seeing the changes made to children’s lives and futures every day.

• What exactly did you work on within the projects of the partner in Ghana?

I interviewed child labourers on the streets about their experience in child labour and their situation at home, together with two supervisors. I then wrote a report summarising the findings, researching the exact law on child labour in Ghana and internationally and comparing the child labour situation to international legal child’s rights standards.

• Would you like to continue to be involved with the project in Ghana?

Definitely! I plan to team up with a previous volunteer to work on fundraising ideas and projects in order to continue to somehow positively impact the community in Ghana and the children’s future.

Finally, I would just like to say a massive thank you for everything you helped with, making this experience possible!!
