Chezzie, 19, UK: I gained a sense of how small I am in comparison the world, a trust in myself and a greater self confidence, and memories of friends and kindness I will never forget. I'd love to come back again, the atmosphere was very open, everybody said hello to each other, everyone was so helpful and made me feel part of the community, instead of the odd one out. It was great to see that westernisation had not tampered too much with their traditions and it was fascinating to learn about the Ndebele people. Highlight were seeing the children sitting on the chairs and around the tables I had supplied, enjoy the songs and activities arranged by me and when improvements in "schoolwork" were made as a result of my input. Coming in the mornings to a chant of "teacher Chezzie" was so cute!
