What are the DOs and DON’Ts that I need to follow while volunteering in Tanzania?
For more than 10 years, Amani Hostel volunteers have traveled and worked in Tanzania, and never did they face any problem with anything. There’s no such ‘rule book’ with decorums that one has to follow, but it’s always good to know about certain things while in a foreign country.
This will help you to get along with the natives easily and also stay safe when you are traveling alone.

DOs:
 People in Tanzania are not quite fond of touching gestures and generally do not
handshake. Do take a note of how the locals greet each other or simply ask your local
coordinator about how to greet someone.
 Use your right hand for exchanging gifts and while eating.
 Do dress conservatively. Carry clothes in which you are comfortable. Know that you
aren’t traveling for a luxury holiday; hence you won’t need many clothes!
 Do respect the local culture and traditions. Spend as much time as you can with the
locals, try to know them well. The Maasai Tribe is a unique tribe holding on to their
culture and customs in this 21st Century.
 Do some good bargaining while shopping at the local markets. People usually charge
more from foreigners, but if you use your bargaining skills properly, you’ll get fair price
deals.

 Do try and learn a few local words such as Jambo (Hello), Asante Sana (Thank You),
Shikamoo (greeting someone elder than you), etc.
DON’Ts:
 Don’t travel alone, especially at night. If you are going out somewhere, don’t forget to
inform your coordinator about your plans. Also, keep the emergency contact numbers
handy.
 Avoid showing public display of affection too much in public with your partner. Being a
developing country, it is not accepted in the Tanzanian culture. People have a very
different mindset here, unlike that of the Europeans or Americans.
 Don’t raise your voice while talking to someone, The people of this country are
extremely soft-spoken.
 Don’t be too concerned with timings – people, here, love to take their own sweet time
to do their work.
 Don’t waste food. Finish whatever is served to you on the plate. Tanzanians are very
particular about their resources and wasting food isn’t appreciated at all.
 Don’t smell the food that is served to you. Also, wash your hands, before and after
eating your meal.
 Don’t forget to use the mosquito net/ insect repellents before sleeping.
 Don’t carry your important documents while you are traveling from one place to
another within the country. It’s safer to leave your valuables at the accommodation.

    I have read your article carefully and I agree with you very much. This has provided a great help for my thesis writing, and I will seriously improve it. However, I don’t know much about a certain place. Can you help me?
