Sanibonani, The beginning of the trip For those who don’t know, I took a second big trip to South Africa and Eswatini. This trip was not only travelling, it included also volunteering.

Education in Eswatini (Swaziland) is of major importance for the country’s future development. Formal learning is essential for most people’s successful growth and development.
