Hi There
I just need some advice really. Me any my boyfriend are keen to go travelling and see the world.
We are very interested ing doing some volunteering. I've done a lot of research and found quite a few websites but our main concern is that we would be able to do it togeher. I've tried to research this but dont seem to be getting anywhere?
Can anybody help on thi and reccomend any decent volunteering projects to go with?
Thanx
Hello,
Saw your post and thought Id reply as Ive done something similar. I went to Cambodia last year and volunteered to work with orphans and street children through a company called projects abroad. They were a really good company and theyre really flexible, you can choose from loads of different projects such as medicine, teaching, law, journalism and conservation and you can choose from about 40 different countries to do it in so really its all your choice. When I was there some people had come on their own, others in groups or in couples. The accomodation in some countries is volunteer accomodation so you can all live together and you would be able to share a room. Other countires, where is safe and practical, you can live with a host family, but again if you go as a couple you can state that on your application form and ask to live with the same family. They are a really reliable company and I felt really secure out there with them, the prices arent too bad compared to other companies as I spent a lot of researching it before I went. Its worth it for the security and the amount you get for your money as it all includes food etc.
Anyway, dont want to bore you with details, I just thought they were a really good company so if you want to check them out just google projects abroad and they should come up.
Also, if you need any more help dont hesitate to reply :-)
Rachael.
