Accommodation, food and transport arrangements
The volunteers will live in twin rooms with aircon in summertime, hot water for winter shower and Wi-Fi, fan, etc. They will enjoy a shared kitchen, common space and shared bathroom with others. Accommodation is located in a quieter and no tourist area in Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam.

As part of the package, volunteers will receive three nutritious meals per day for six days a week. Additionally, they will be provided with a complimentary monthly bus pass.
