Been having a long think about what I will do when I finish up work on 26th March this year (I'm being paid off). The only thing I knew for sure I wanted to do was travel, so I had initially thought Spain for a few months then pop over to Oz to see my friend Linda (although I think the latter is going to be as more of a holiday).
However I've lately been researching doing volunteer work abroad and came across this site:
www.gvi.co.uk
OMG I hadn't realised there were so many opportunities for volunteer work across the world! I'm now seriously considering the idea - there are LOADS of projects on this site I would love to be a part of. Gives me the chance to see a bit of the world but to make a difference too.
I know there was a post a while back about volunteer work but I think that was more geared towards volunteering in your local community.
Anyone out there done or know of anyone who has done anything on a bit of a wider scale?
