My stay at the school was better than I even expected! The hosts were so kind and created a welcoming environment to live and work in. The job itself is super easy and I had a lot of fun with it. Outside of work, there's lots of places nearby to visit and you have plenty of free time to do what you want while staying on the island. The school is walking distance to most places but taxis are also very accessible if you're wanting to venture out further. I couldn't recommend this experience more, I absolutely loved it!!

The organization is a nice place to stay on the organization Islands. Your main task is helping out with the kids in the morning during kinder care. During that time you assist groups, do some creative work with them or just look after them. You'll stay right next to the school which is really convenient. You do get your private room where you have a shower, toilet and bed in it. For cooking you can use their kitchen. They also provide you with a bike which is one of the best ways to get around on the island. Working with the other teachers is fun, most of them are also international travellers!

Volunteering at the organization was great! Indie and her sister Ale run the morning Daycare and are very nice people to work with. They are flexible, understanding and caring. The Daycare follows a daily routine that is very well organized. The kids are very cute and energetic! If you like crafts, they love new ideas and would be happy to help plan it for the kids! The accommodation was also very nice. I stayed with Ale and her daughter Kai, they are amazing! So friendly and welcoming and Kai is the best!! She loves talking and playing and is always smiling.

Indira was such an awesome host to have for my first worldpackers trip! She communicated with me thoroughly throughout the entire process before I arrived, and that made me feel so much more secure in traveling somewhere unknown. I decided to stay a tad longer than originally planned, and Indira and her sister Ale have been more than accommodating. Indira and her husband run the English school and Ale is the person I was living with. Ale gave me a little tour of the town when I got here and gives helpful advice everyday for life on the island. My experience with the organization has been incredible!
