Volunteer in South Africa: about the country I'm going to

South Africa is one of the most interesting places on Earth. It is also one of the most ethnically diverse countries in Africa, with the largest share of white, Indian, and mixed populations on the African continent. In South Africa, 11 languages are recognized as official! The country is a kaleidoscope, a rainbow nation, as South Africans call themselves. What could be more exciting, interesting, and exotic than a trip to this country! The air here seems to be filled with exoticism, mystery, romance, and something else amazing and alluring that makes South Africa a completely different world that you can try to know and understand by participating in this program. Most projects are located in the vicinity of Cape Town, which is one of the most beautiful and safest cities in the country.

“I love it in South Africa. I am attracted to how people live here and to them as individuals. I like the local climate. It is just right for living. And it is so beautiful around! You don’t have to go anywhere special to see something extraordinary. It surrounds you every day!”

Elizabeth, Magnitogorsk

“This is the most European country in Africa, where modernity and archaism are bizarrely combined, and truly wild nature coexists with populous cities. This is a country where gold and diamonds are mined, where they hunt in the famous veld, produce excellent wine, where once there was the kingdom of the Zulus, and the English fought the Dutch. This is a country at the southern tip of which — Cape of Good Hope — the lands inhabited by humans come to an end. This is a country at the edge of the world. Welcome to South Africa!”
