Amazing trip to vietnam for food outreach
November 23, 2018by: Tamarra Al Azzawi - New ZealandProgram: Volunteer in Vietnam: Support communities in Ho Chi MinhThe volunteering trip was super rewarding as I was able to meet some amazing people from around the world and share the experience with working with the local team who were all so helpful and kind. Everything from the process of booking the trip as well as the actual organisation when arriving in Vietnam was so easy and quick, as well as the accommodation being super clean and tidy. Everything was well planned plus allowed us to have time to explore the city for ourselves with the help of the team giving us advice on places to visit and the best ways to travel to places. The placement options were diverse, and having done the food outreach it was well established for volunteers to work and interact with the locals. I would definitely recommend IVHQ as it truly gave a very rewarding and memorable experience.
My wonderful experience in Vietnam
August 22, 2018by: Alessia Siribelli - ItalyProgram: Volunteer in Vietnam: Support communities in Ho Chi MinhVolunteering in Vietnam has been an incredible experience. Vietnamese people are joyful, kind and welcoming and Vietnam is a wonderful country. The food and the accommodation were very good. I met such amazing people and even if I was there only for a few weeks I felt I've known them for years. The medical program gave me the chance to see for myself how different the Vietnamese health system is from my country's, and I think this knowledge and experience will help me in my future career.
Hi Alessia, thank you for taking the time to provide this review. It's great to hear you were able to gain insight into the Vietnamese medical system. I am stoked to hear you made friends with the other volunteers and hope you can volunteer with IVHQ again in the future as we would love to have you back. Sean - IVHQ Program Manager.
Best experience with the best organization
August 02, 2018by: caroline castellone - United StatesProgram: Volunteer in Vietnam: Support communities in Ho Chi MinhI absolutely loved working with IVHQ and the leaders of my program throughout my 3 weeks in Vietnam. The program directors and our mentors were so helpful and really made the experience unforgettable. They were amazing teachers, role models, and friends during the entire journey and I am so thankful for them because the trip would not have been the same without them.
Kia ora Caroline, it's awesome to hear you had an unforgettable 3 weeks in Vietnam. We hope you can volunteer with us again in the future. Sean - IVHQ Program Manager
