If you\u2019ve ever volunteered abroad you know we\u2019re not exaggerating when we say that joining an overseas volunteering program will change your life. It\u2019ll open your eyes to global inequalities, give you a greater appreciation for everything you have, and help you contribute to making the world a better place.<\/p>\n

But as rewarding as it can be, volunteering overseas shouldn\u2019t be an activity to take lightly. Along with the regular tasks of any other job, you\u2019ve also got the added responsibilities of making sure you\u2019re having a positive impact on the community, project or person. Wanting to make a difference must to be your number one priority in choosing any volunteer position, but that\u00a0doesn\u2019t mean you won\u2019t personally get a lot out of joining an international volunteer program.<\/p>\n

Dedicating your time, resources and expertise to any volunteer project in need is an admirable way to contribute to the bettering of the world. And in doing so you\u2019ll also add to the bettering of yourself. Whether you\u2019re volunteering for a gap year holiday, or a veteran of international volunteering<\/a><\/span>, everyone can get a lot from taking the time to help others.<\/p>\n

Breaking Out Of You Comfort Zone<\/h2>\n

If there\u2019s one guarantee for volunteering abroad it\u2019s that you\u2019ll push yourself further than you thought you could. In your position you\u2019ll constantly be bombarded with a plethora of \u2018new\u2019. New tastes, smells, cultures, ideals, lifestyles. The first week or so is most likely going to be a period of continually adjusting to this new way of life. You\u2019ll be learning exactly what that mystery meat was from last night\u2019s dinner and how to cope with the cockroach that lives in the corner of your room. You\u2019ll get over your fear of speaking in a foreign language and get the courage to step up and take leadership role when you\u2019re needed. Why? Because you have to.<\/p>\n

Unlike traveling, where you can easily move on if you don\u2019t like a place, as a volunteer you\u2019ve made a commitment to an organization. Despite uncomfortable situations, you\u2019ll need to power\u00a0through and push the boundaries of your comfort zone. And you know what? You\u2019ll be better off for it! You\u2019ll look back on those mini-breakdown moments and laugh it off\u2026 eventually.<\/p>\n

Getting Back More Than You\u2019d Planned<\/h2>\n

Going into your volunteer position you should be focusing on what you can give to the community and organization you\u2019re helping. But what may be more surprising is how much you\u2019ll receive in return. Volunteering abroad isn\u2019t just about heading overseas and building houses during your spring break. It\u2019s about connecting with communities around the world. Finding mutual interests and respecting our differences. It\u2019s the little moments like learning how to weave from a Guatemalan<\/a><\/span> abuela<\/em> (grandmother) or dancing the traditional kuratsa<\/em> with a family in the Philippines<\/a><\/span>. It\u2019s moments like these that you\u2019ll remember forever. These are moments\u00a0that you\u2019d never have access to if you were just visiting\u00a0as a\u00a0traveler, disconnected from the true day to day activities of the culture you\u2019re passing through.<\/p>\n

Gaining Newfound Independence<\/h2>\n

There\u2019s nothing like moving away from the comforts of home to a foreign country to kick start your sense of independence. Leaving all the things that were familiar and reassuring, to embark on a journey into the unknown! Not only will you be learning to adapt to new living situations, but you\u2019ll now have to do it without the immediate support of your friends and family. It\u2019s in these times that you\u2019ll discover your true inner strength that\u2019s been buried in there all along. Everyone has it, and taking on a foreign volunteering trip is the perfect way to accelerate its development.<\/p>\n

Learning to navigate through a foreign place by yourself will prove that you are truly independent. And this newfound independence won\u2019t only be useful while you\u2019re traveling, it carries through your life in all aspects. Being independent helps you find the confidence to pursue things in life that you really want. Whether you\u2019re pursuing a promotion, taking up a fun\u00a0hobby or just taking the plunge on something new.<\/p>\n

Learning a New Appreciation For What You Already Have<\/h2>\n

Perhaps one of the most life-changing parts of volunteering abroad isn\u2019t what happens while you\u2019re overseas, but rather when you return home. If you take a volunteer position in developing communities, it\u2019s inevitable that you when you get back to your home country you\u2019ll notice glaring differences. Not just in the standard of living, but also due to the consumer driven nature of more well-off countries. It’s also this consumer focussed nature that is having an extreme impact on environments all over world, as well as the animals that live in those environments. You’ll start to see that it’s all intertwined!<\/p>\n

Wasted resources will drive you crazy and you won\u2019t believe how much people take their privilege for granted. You\u2019ll start to look at those little things you complained about in the past as incomparable to the inequalities in many countries around the world. Witnessing first hand the resourcefulness and resilience of marginalized communities will give you a new appreciation for everything you have.<\/p>\n

<\/br><\/p>\n

\"how<\/p>\n

<\/br><\/p>\n

This newly discovered appreciation isn\u2019t intended to make you feel bad about living your life back home, but perhaps it will help you make more conscious decisions next time you decide to leave the water running brushing your teeth or spend $200 on that new\u00a0pair of shoes. Or maybe it\u2019ll encourage you to do a little more once you\u2019re back home. This could be as small as buying from reputable companies that support fair trade practices, or donating money to organizations helping the cause.<\/p>\n

Making Life Long Friends<\/h2>\n

There\u2019s no stronger bond than a bond shared over making the world a better place. Whether it\u2019s with other international volunteers, local staff or families from the community, joining forces with others from different walks of life will produce friendships that last a lifetime. Friends back home will admire the stories you share, but only your new friends will truly understand the life changing experiences that you\u2019ve been through. These friendships will stay\u00a0strong over time and distance, regardless of how far or long it is between drinks.<\/p>\n

Changing Your Mentality For life<\/h2>\n

While you may only have a few weeks or months to volunteer abroad, the impact it has on your worldview will last a lifetime. You\u2019ll leave your volunteer position feeling empowered and inspired to do more good in the world. You\u2019ll leave humble, knowing that just because you have the privilege of being from a developed country and receiving an education doesn\u2019t mean you\u2019re more skilled or knowledgeable than someone from a developing country. Rather, you have the privilege and opportunity of taking time off and traveling somewhere new, and instead of sipping margaritas on the beach, you\u2019ve chosen to lend a hand. From here on out you\u2019ll be more aware of those instances you can help out even in the smallest ways in your own community. You\u2019ll search\u00a0for a job that has a charitable component and you\u2019ll always look for your next opportunity to travel and give back.<\/p>\n

As you can see, along with helping the world, you can also gain a lot for yourself in the process. While this shouldn\u2019t be your sole focus when choosing a volunteer program, it is important to\u00a0enjoy your volunteer work and feel good about what you\u2019ve done.<\/p>\n
