First time volunteering , didn't disappoint !

I had a great time on the Forest Conservation project in Lisbon. My first time away from home for 2 weeks travelling on my own. Wish I'd done it sooner ! The information and support before during and after has been amazing from IVHQ. I felt very safe throughout , the local team were great. I enjoyed the hostel and meeting lots of new people from different countries. I was able to just be me. I hope to do more travelling and volunteering with IVHQ as it's a brilliant way to combine an interest with a safe and well organised project team as back up if needed. It's great socially too !
