I am going backpacking through Southeast Asia for 3 months. I always like to do a short-term volunteer stint when I'm traveling but I do not like to book it through NGOs or other organizations beforehand that charge a fortune and force you into a time frame. Does anyone have information on volunteering while already there? Somewhere I can just show up while traveling to lend my services for some weeks?
Any info at all would be appreciated! Thank you!
Reply to this You can have a look at Vina Volunteer Service http://vietnamvolunteer.net/. I recommend the placement Volunteer for Organic Farm in Vietnam http://vietnamvolunteer.net/volunteer-for-organic-farm-in-vietnam.html
Reply to this “The Little Big Project” is a Volunteer Tourism competition funded by the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT), to inspire worldwide travelers to take a Volunteer vacation in Thailand.
This will give you an opportunity to do something meaningful while on holiday, You will be amazed how little can make such a BIG difference, and to have a life changing experience for yourself and make a better world for others.
