The Tvind story
Back in the year 2000 I was looking for an development aid organization accepting volunteers. Disappointed by the German DED and GTZ which don't take undergratuate or unskilled volunteers and several other organizations where you had to pay for working in Africa I came accross Humana.
They seemed to offer a good trade-off at first glance. Although I've been warned I didn't find any serious arguments against Humana. Maybe because I didn't know they were called Tvind. So I've joined the so called Preparation course in Lindervold, Denmark.
To help others avoiding this experience I decided to publish some information about my life with the cult and what other sources there are.
