Nyasha and World 2 the Whyze are beyond professional, enthusiastic, and all about the community. All the.authentic connections created for guests to be involved in just a small piece of AfroColombian culture, does not go unnoticed
— Alexia (26)
Working with Nyasha, I visited a part of Colombia that I probably would not have seen on my own.
— Braxton (22)
I would recommend anyone willing to challenge their own way of thinking, as well as someone that would like to be involved in the community to take advantage of Nyasha’s services. She will not disappoint!

Our Community also Says:

This experience helped me connect with another community in the African Diaspora, insofar as seeing the lived experience of a non-US diasporic community provides a deeper understanding than simply providing information.
— Chelsie (33)
I received the extremely valuable experience of growth that comes from traveling to a new place and experiencing a new culture, new people, and new ideas. I learned a lot not just from what I saw and experienced, but also through what Nyasha could further explain to me.
