Hi! I was interested in doing a three-month volunteer trip to the Romanian orphanage, I was thinking about leaving in January-February, can you give me any information/advice? I'm a college student, taking a semester off, hoping to volunteer abroad. I didn't find as much information on Romania as the other trips. I wou...ld love to do a trip to Africa, but my family is being extreme on safety issues, and I never took Spanish as a second language, so that narrows my options. Let me know, please! Thanks!Read More

hi- I've been trying to find a good long-term volunteer trip to Africa for the past 6 months that my family will approve of, and i hope that this will be it. I have been to the website and already researched the 6-12 month trip to kenya. I love working with children and even though I'm only 19 i have good experience. W...hile i was on the website i didn't find anything about travel fees or volunteer fees. This information is really important to me since i pay for everything on my own so it would be really helpful if you could give me this information. Thanks so much.Read More
