1. Volunteer Experience Officer: When you voluntarily join a group to complete an activity and help an object for free during your trip, you should also bear the corresponding responsibilities while enjoying your trip.
2. Youth travel volunteers: work for accommodation, and more volunteers are recruited from youth hostels and homestays.
What is the significance of volunteer travel?
Whenever the volunteer experience officer finishes his trip, most of them will get the volunteer certificate. Through volunteer travel, he can meet some like-minded friends from all walks of life, expand his circle of friends, improve his learning ability and communication ability, and also experience local human geography, customs and characteristics and taste local food. Youth travel volunteers generally do not give certificates, but youth travel will give some rewards.
(PS: I am a young volunteer here. I went to the beautiful Pingtan Island in Fujian, the nearest island to Taiwan Province Province. I can enjoy blue tears at the seaside. It is very beautiful. )
How to find a place to recruit volunteers;
Some offline apps such as WeChat official account, Douban group, Weibo, Xiaohongshu, etc. There will be information about the inn where the store recruits volunteers. I found it on the "Kangaroo Youth Volunteer Travel" of WeChat official account. They will post the information of the inn on the official WeChat account. Hotels with blacklist reputation can refer to lightning protection and then reply to the corresponding keywords in the background, so that we can add the store WeChat for communication.
Ensure that when communicating with the store:
1. Work and rest time: Volunteers are not equal to complete coolies. If you trade coolies for accommodation, you should have your own relaxation time to experience the local customs.
2. Accommodation conditions: Most homestays have staff dormitories and single rooms. If you can't accept sharing, you need to communicate with the store.
3. Eating habits: confirm whether the diet of the hotel is appropriate. The inn I went to is the owner of the northeast, and the diet is not much different. )
4. Work content: When communicating with the store, make sure that the work content is beyond your ability. Most homestays do cleaning, making beds, entertaining guests and cooking, which are relatively easy.
Don't be too blind when volunteering. You should know your own needs. If it is not the same as expected or uncomfortable, communicate with the store and end the trip as soon as possible.
