🇳🇦 Africa, Volunteer Diary

The wish that I have planned for a long time, but I don't have the courage to fulfill it, is also a birthday gift for myself, from the initial fear to the reluctance after adjusting to return, everything is like a dream

Departure from Melbourne to Perth to Johannesburg to Namibia A total of 25 hours Arrived in Namibia on Thursday night and stayed in Windu for one night On the plane, I met two German companions to visit Vindu The next day, people from the Hanas Animal Protection Organization came to the hotel to pick up people and started my volunteer journey It took about 4 hours to drive from Windo to Hanas, and I stopped at Gobabis supermarket to buy daily necessities It is recommended to buy some vitamins The climate here is too dry You can supplement the nutrition in the body The first day of arrival is already evening Because there is no light pollution, the starry sky looks up and visible The volunteers live in the volunteer village It is a log cabin for 4 people in one room Girls live with girls The farm where I work every day is about a kilometer away The first two days will introduce you to familiarize yourself with the environment After normal work Breakfast at 7:30 o'clock 8 o'clock The farm gathers for a meeting After arranging the work, start preparing ingredients for the animals Then work until 12:30 to meet for lunch (the place to eat is called lapa, in the volunteer village needs to come back from the farm) 2:30 p.m. The farm gathers for a meeting at 2:30 p.m. Work until 6:30 Dinner at 7 o'clock, usually tired at the end of the day, go straight back to the room to sleep, but you can also participate in other volunteers' after-dinner activities (sometimes volunteers stay in lapa after meals to play some small games to kill time)

When you're busy, it really flies by, and the two weeks in Hanas are fleeting. Looking back in Melbourne, it was like a dream. I met volunteers from all over the world, most of them were very friendly, there were five instructors, and there would be village mum and village daddy (also volunteers) in the volunteer village, and they could come to them if you had any problems, and they would help you figure it out

Although the internet in that place is very bad, there is no hot water to bathe, every day is unkempt, every day there are colors on the body, and even charging can only be charged during the day in the charging house on the farm, but every day you can contact with those cute little animals (except baboons...). Hateful cute because it bites) When you look up at night, it's full of stars, it's really worth it, you can be yourself here as you like, and this simple life is really very fulfilling and happy ❤️
