I will be flying out to Ghana in Africa next june/July for 4 weeks to volunteer with original volunteers. In my time in Ghana I will work alongside other volunteers to build schools, teach children English i will also have the chance to work in a hospital alongside nurses and give general health care. Being able to volunteer in Africa is very important as its quite a poor country so to be able to help and be able to contribute by teaching children and giving basic health care in a hospital will be really rewarding and an eye opening experience. I will live alongside other volunteers and work throughout my time there in different areas of care, as I want to study child nursing next September I feel this is a great opportunity for me to widen my knowledge and gain and understanding about another culture and country and how it differs. Working alongside nurses in a hospital will really benefit me as I will be able to see what it's like to work in other country and this could be a potential career opportunity for me in the future. I'm really excited to be able to spend 4 weeks in another country and be able to experience life in Africa and be able to experience their culture during my time there.
