Are you dreaming of adventure? A life change or a volunteering project? Do you want to learn new skills? Or maybe you want to do something beneficial for others and have an impact on both micro and macro scales?
If you answered „yes” to at least one of these questions, check out the benefits of participating in the Workaway programme.
What is Workaway? – volunteer globally and explore the world
Workaway is a platform for barter-based exchanges between hosts and volunteers from around the world. Hosts offer accommodation and meals in exchange for assistance with various tasks, while volunteers gain valuable experiences and cultural immersion.
So, how can you benefit from being a workawayer? Immensely! Here are some of the advantages:
- Language learning: 🌍🗣️ Daily interactions in a foreign language with your host contribute to rapid development of participants’ language skills. But not only that! Through the platform you can find a language buddy and offer a language exchange. What a cool idea, isn’t it? More about it HERE.
- New skills: 🛠️📚 Volunteers have the opportunity to learn new skills through various tasks performed at their hosts.
- Budget-friendly travel: ✈️🌏 The program offers free accommodation and meals in exchange for work, which is a great option for travellers on a limited budget.
- Understanding local culture: 🌍🤝 Through daily interactions with locals, volunteers have the opportunity to better understand and appreciate the local culture and perspective.
- Building relationships: 🤗🌐 The program allows for building lasting friendships and relationships with people from different parts of the world.
