Coach Football and Connect in Kisumu, Kenya

Hey my name is Ben im 22 and from Munich in Germany, I had one of my coolest and most interesting times in Kenia with BetterMe. I learned so much and really started to trust myself again ... this trip gave me the courage to dive into things without hesitation. It was grounding to see communities working together, and I loved exploring, stepping into different people’s surroundings, and playing football with BetterMe, Coach Billy and the boys from Kisian and Korando. The BetterMe team was super great ... every one of them has their own superpower. Also all of them are meaningful people that are willing to support you and also to help and guide you through everything. I’d recommend anyone who wants to see another part of the world and help out to volunteer with BetterMe. Big greetings from Munich, Germany.

Better Me has offered me an incredible amount of unforgettable experiences. From going on safari, visiting the equator and spending so much time with the kids to becoming a member of the family- each and every wish has been fulfilled. I didn’t think that this time would affect my life back in Austria so much, but it does, because I think about my second family each and every day. The kindness and effort of the team is something I will forever be grateful for and I am going to return to Kenya soon for sure. Thank you so much, for the best time of my life and for the memories that I will cherish forever. Asante sana.
