Placement in Uganda

My internship will take place with Rainforest & Community Tours in South-West Uganda (close to the border of Congo). This is an organisation whereby part of their profits are pumped back into rural communities supporting indigenous development and conservation initatives.

As Winston Churchill said ''‘’Uganda is from end to end one beautiful garden’’ - meaning the pearl of Africa.

Joëlle

Hello, Ik ben Joëlle Glerum. Ik ben een zelfstandige & ondernemend persoon. Ik heb in mei 2012 mijn HAVO diploma gehaald. Toen ik 15 jaar was ben ik zelfstandig voor een halfjaar naar Engeland gegaan. Dit jaar (2012/2013) zal ik vrijwilligerswerk gaan doen in het buitenland. Ik hou erg van lekker eten. Verder wielren en squash ik. Ik hou ervan om te lezen en te reizen. In mijn toekomst wil ik iets gaan doen met ontwikkelingswerk of toerisme, of het combineren. Dit jaar zal mij veel duidelijkheid geven over de keuzes voor mijn toekomst. Cya, xx. Joëlle
