Ronan, first steps in a humanitarian career (May 2018 – January 2019)

“Happiness! Looking for a job in the associative world, I decided to go through the civic service box to densify my CV.

Loving travel, change of scenery and contact with children, I was immediately won over by Peri Naua’s project in the township of Otjiwarongo. Having lived in Namibia for eight months was a huge breath of fresh air for me.

Far from the hellish pace of France, I was able to take a step back on myself and return to a simpler and healthier lifestyle. Life in the township has proven to be very pleasant, very musical, and lively.

I have only met good people, colourful characters, whether Namibians or foreigners.

Peri Naua was a formative experience from every point of view and reinforced my desire to carry out development projects for disadvantaged populations. But the best part about this adventure was the possibility of spending a lot of time with the children. Whether it was kindergarten toddlers with whom I spent an hour a day, playing with them, while trying to instil in them some values ​​(living together, respect for equipment, hygiene …) They were so playful and full of life and never tired of posing so that I could take pictures of them… Or even the older ones at the library, with whom the exchanges were even more enriching, the sharing stronger. I will miss a lot of them, and I would be curious about what will happen to them in the future … If I could have extended my stay here, I would have been happy to do so. Finally, how to talk about Peri Naua without mentioning Monique! A huge thank you to her for the colossal work she has been carrying out on site for years!”
