Meeting people will make you feel right at home. Therefore, we will provide volunteers the opportunity to visit market places, Moroccan families and natural sites in groups or individually during their free time.
There will also be Project visits, where volunteer’s will have the opportunity to conduct activities as a group and meet current volunteers in other projects who can share their experiences.

Requirements

Morocco has 2 official languages, Arabic and Tamazight and Moroccan Arabic knowns as Darija is the spoken native. We will start with teaching Darija classes. Do not forget that English and French is widely spoken throughout the country. However, we urge the volunteers to learn and speak the local language, as it will open more doors for them.
There are some simple rules, which can help volunteers have a smooth integration with each other and with the local people. This will also help overcome the culture shock!
All volunteers are requested to bring items from their home such as photos, music, food, handicrafts, etc. that will help them present their country and culture to other volunteers as well as to the local youth and your Host Family.
