For travelers looking to volunteer on their travels, Lonely Planet is offering a free download of its book: Volunteer: A Traveller’s Guide to Making a Difference Around the World.
The book is a comprehensive resource to those looking to volunteer abroad.
It includes chapters on:
- how to choose a volunteer experience;
- what to expect when you are there; and
- how to extend your experience once you return home.
It also provides a directory of organizations around the world that accept volunteers.
This guide is not a pamphlet — but the full 272 page book that sells for $14 on Amazon.
totally cool. Is there any place where i can volunteer to be a massage demonstration model? or volunteer to sample proposed new gelato flavors?
Ha ha. You might want to look into some of the community service trips in this guide. I’ll bet you can do some sightseeing on your days off.
