Tanzania
In just about every area, from the culture, to the other volunteers, to the children themselves, the whole trip absolutely surpassed all expectations I had. Where everything stood out in its own way, I would say that the opportunity I had to hold those little kindergarteners' hands through the learning process was something that just really touched my heart and separated itself from some of the other amazing things I experienced. Overall it was probably the best 3 weeks I can remember in my life.Zachary Baldwin
