I helped during 2 weeks at the childcare center and I was very greatfull for this experience : I met amazing people, such as Staff and local people. I discovered a lot about local culture and I was very happy to help the « cuidadoras » in the center and to give a bit of joy to the children... The « Minga House Team » was very friendly and we had the opportunity of visit a lot of spots in the city and in the neighbourhood, thanks to the the staff who was very helpful. Amazing experience that I highly recommend!!!

I have always wanted to incorporated my profession, nursing, and my hobby, travel, into my life actively. I seek to find opportunities to be of use wherever I go. I had always wanted to visit Colombia and as I was planning my trip, I wondered if I could add some kind of nursing work into my travels.
