During training, the Volunteer will stay within a peri-urban area just outside the capital. The Volunteer will then move to their permanent site in the Manzini Region and live in their own house within a family homestead. While electricity is widely available and most Volunteers will live with modern conveniences, Volunteers should also be prepared to live without electricity and to use a latrine, as that is the norm in rural communities. You will commute to work on foot or public transport, depending on the distance from your house to the workplace.
