Esther
The trip was truly incredible! The Volunteering works were really touching my soul. I felt it gaves me a great opportunity to give back to this world but at the same time it helps to find myself along the way as well. I was very happy to be able to meet so many kind Cisconians /souls from different part of the world that inspired me in many ways. The organizers from Nomuhub were very organized, kind & genuine in person, you can always count on them as they're very professional, knowledgeable, friendly and down to earth, & you can't get any better than this. The entire trip was very smooth & excited, truly looking forward to the next trip with Nomuhub again. Last but not least, Kudos to Gyani, Roy & Zainab, as they're really amazing ! I felt blessed to be part of this NEPAL Building Volunteer trip and you gonna try it yourself ! :D

I enjoyed every single moment of the trip. Zanzibar food and songs are amazing. The work we did in the school was my favorite part the interaction with students and challenging our selves to do the volunteery work is so satisfying
Haneen
The idea of travelling to a new country plus sharing your efforts and money for a good purpose there is fantastic and very satisfying! High five for such initiatives and for NomuHub who organised very SAFE trip to Bentota-Sri Lanka in May 2023. The food and accommodation were super good.

My trip with Nomu Hub was definitely an experience of a lifetime. I’ve traveled several times but this is the first time I was able to see the country through the eyes of the locals and feel what struggles they’re going through on a daily basis. Through volunteering, I’ve immersed in the local culture and bonded with people there which made Zanzibar felt like home. This whole experience showed me exactly what I was meant to be doing in this world. And now I suppose it would be difficult to gain the same level of satisfaction from a traditional vacation after such a meaningful trip.
Nuha B
It was a beautiful trip in every sense of the word. The companionship was more beautiful and everyone was helpful and kind. The trip guide did an excellent job in managing things. I thank Namhub for this trip and I want to be with them next time to help people in need. I hope to be part of your team and I hope to work with you.
