User Comments:

“I would return to South Africa like a shot. Lattitude offered me a placement that has changed me as a person, and shaped my future. I have made friends for life here in South Africa, and had experiences that I would gain in no other place. Whilst my friends were doing their first year at university – I was in Africa, dancing with locals, playing with lion cubs, teaching the disadvantaged, riding elephants and coasting the waves.”
