As we try to get Hosts to host to us, while we are out of the Country, you understand that they do charge a fee per guest, for stay and food a. We encourage you to stay with the group but if the place where we will be hosted at is not to your liking you are more than welcome to get your own place to stay and ride to and from the Mission or any other expenses that you acquire are at your own expense.While we love to organize International trips to be able to help others, we want to be very specific about it being a trip to help those in need, and it is not a vacation for us.
