TEAM
Laurie
Founder, Occupational Therapist and Certified Yoga Teacher
Hello! I’m Laurie and I’m a traveler who loves meeting new people and exploring the world. My thirst for adventure led me to discover several continents in different ways, but mainly by traveling solo with my backpack. In 2014, I stepped on the African continent for the first time : I was arriving in Ghana for my first volunteer trip. The warm welcome of the locals, their vibrant culture and the discovery of their daily life immediately made me fall in love with this way of traveling. It was the beginning of my journey off the beaten track, always searching for adventures and human contacts in the countries I visited. Despite some twists and turns along the way (sorry mom), these experiences remain among the most memorable times of my life!
By traveling with Yulgo Travels, I sincerely hope that you will meet incredible people and have the time of your life during your trip!
See you soon,
Laurie

Tammy is Canadian and she has been living in Africa since 2011. She has traveled and volunteered there since then, while enjoying every minute spent on the African soil. With such a background, Tammy dreamed of working with an entire community, from the youngest to the oldest. This is how she came up with the idea of building a school and a community center where she will warmly welcome us during our volunteer trip to Zambia!
