In this section, you will find details about what to expect when you volunteer with DLZ, what your daily life will look like, accommodation information, and helpful tips to prepare for your volunteer journey.
House Accommodation
We mainly accommodate our volunteers at the Volunteer House, located just 3 km from Livingstoneâs town center, near the breathtaking Victoria Fallsâlocally known as Mosi-o-Tunya, or “The Smoke That Thunders.”
Our rooms feature 24-hour running water, ceiling fans, and comfortable living arrangements. Volunteers have the option of staying in shared or private rooms.
- Shared Rooms: These rooms host 2 to 5 volunteers who share the toilet and bathroom facilities.
- Private Rooms: For those who prefer extra privacy, private rooms are available at an additional cost. These rooms come with a double bed or twin beds, an attached bathroom with toilet, and tea/coffee-making facilities. Private rooms should be booked in advance and are subject to availability.
