You do know that most of the "vacations" where you volunteer don't come equipped with outlets for crock pots, right?

I know a family that went to Costa Rica recently and according to FB...


When you go on a volunteer trip and receive more than you give....

Thank you to our host/guide Federico HM and #GlobeAware for an unforgettable week!



Seems like they really enjoyed it and it was great for parents and kids.

Why would you want to work on vacation?

Go relax. Life is stressful. Vacations are good to help with that.

Short term projects in USA. The link seems otherwise but it's USA stuff.

Longer term great stuff, mostly. A few short projects but take you all day to find them. Camping, camping, camping.
