Your Typical Itinerary
Please note that your itineraries may differ from this, depending on your own experience and the number of other volunteers on the placement at the same time, and this is simply to give an example:
07:00 Get up, eat breakfast of cereals, toast, tea/coffee, and start getting ready for your project.
07:40 Head off on the short drive to the community clinic for that day.
08:00 Assist in local community clinic.
12:30 You will be picked up from your project, and taken to your volunteer house, where lunch is waiting for you.
13:30 Leave for one of the community projects. You will spend the afternoon playing with the children at the schools, assisting with the Masakhane or VDP Projects, or building and painting classrooms.
16:30 End of the working day. You will be picked up from your project and taken home where we evaluate the day and discuss the schedule for the next day, or you can opt to be dropped off in town to check emails.
18:30 Dinner at your volunteer house. After dinner, volunteers often go for a few drinks at one of the local nightspots.
