Housekeepers are essential to the running of our hospital ship. As Wairoa resident Adrienne Andresen told the Wairoa Star, “Without it being clean, it can’t do the work it needs to do.” Every one of our hundreds of crew members would completely agree.

Having already volunteered twice as a housekeeper, first in the Republic of Congo and then in Madagascar, Wairoa Star reports, “She is ‘definitely’ considering making the tour a third time. ‘It gets to be quite a close community.’ ‘You get addicted to it, I think it’s because it’s an entirely different way of life and so worth it.’”

Read Wairoa Star’s great article about her experiences here, and check out their website here.
