I am from Madagascar island;you remark that it's not in the list!it's a francophone country but everyone like me always try to get a good knowledge of english; because of bad political environment in my country I went to Djibouti,and stay thre for 20 years;so I could visit Ethiopia;both countries are suffering of arrivals of refugees from their boarder;all my friends were refugees ;so now I can speak basic Amharic  and Somali and Arabic (French of course);I tried to connect with sites for volunteers but I didn't know the volunteer has to pay some amount of money and air ticket!I am without job now so I can't pay anything ;so I beg all of you to make my dream true:volunteering in Ethiopia or somewhere  like Djibouti or Italy;I would teach maths and coaching sports in Namibia but that needs about 2000 us$ (two thousands);I was little surprised;because on the announcement it was told "get paid in teaching abroad"!I choose Ethiopia because I have some idea about the people (my spouse and my daughter are ethiopians);as it's avery big country ,many children need help;as I was teacher in maths I continue my tasks;the situation is the same in the horn of Africa,but in Djibouti and Somalia ,people are more nervous ,some conflicts may happen;people in Ethiopia are more quiet and ready to accept you;
