While some people consider a vacation as a time to sit back and relax, others are using their vacation time to give back. Going on a volunteer vacation is an excellent way to see the world in a non-traditional way. Volunteer vacations are being set up all over the world through charity and volunteer organizations as a way for people to get involved when they travel abroad. Eco-vacations, or city volunteering are two popular ways to volunteer while you’re studying, working, traveling, living or vacationing abroad. College students find this an excellent way to get in volunteer hours while others see it as simply a way to give back. Go on a non-traditional vacation and put in some volunteer hours!
