Leigh in Tanzania
 Welcome to my blog.
This is a record of my time doing volunteer work in Arusha, Tanzania during 2009.
I am volunteering though the Mondo Challenge placement organisation (www.mondochallenge.org) and am teaching at the Eureka Insitute, part of the Youth Self Empowerment Programme (www.ysep-tanzania.org). Visit their websites to find out more.
I would love to hear from you so please feel free to add a message. |
