ACCOMMODATION AND TRAVEL

You are likely to stay in a comfortable family run guest house. This means that you will get to eat, sleep, work, socialise and generally live like a Ghanaian. Local family stays enable you to fully experience the local culture from the inside.

Many of our volunteers remain friends with their host families long after they leave Ghana and in some cases they return to the country later especially to visit their family. Sometimes members of their Ghanaian family have even gone to visit them in their home country.

Food will be local cuisine - again this is to enable you to fully experience living as local Ghanaians do.

As always, our Local Manager will look after you well and will always be on hand to help and offer advice.
