This was a life altering experience
August 07, 2018by: Kelly LarsonThis was a life altering experience that I will be looking to continue working /volunteering again hopefully in Fiji and likely around the world. What I enjoyed most were the incredible people; the base staff and the wonderful Fijians that worked with us daily.
