The types of Voluntourism programs are diverse, from non skilled tasks like cleaning up local wildlife areas to highly-skilled medical aid.
Combining a vacation with volunteering in a foreign country is a great way to immerse yourself in local cultures and make a difference.
While many of these programs are less costly than non-volunteer vacations, VolunTourism comes with some discomforts. Are you willing to live, work and socialize with people whose culture and outlook is very different from yours? Can you deal with living in a tent or run down structure with an outhouse? Or do you need to be in a hotel?
VolunTourism has caught on with college students, baby boomers, seniors and women's groups, who want to experience the adventure and rewards from helping causes abroad.
The wide range of volunteer travel programs listed on the web site are for travelers who want a cross-cultural experience, who are flexible and want to make a difference. Many of these trips prove to be life-changing experiences.
