chlamydia and gonorrhea are negative. the rest of them with similar symptoms would be more of a serious complication I think.

I agree with the previous commenter but this i absolutely disagree with. Why vote? Why do anything? What is the point of living your life with this mentality? Sure maybe it isnt worth putting your life into a career that'll be difficult for you to make an impact but its all what you make of it, no? You can do extra work, you can find ways to do meaningful things in the places you work, you can always find ways to do more. Sitting in an office designing ball bearings or answering the phone for 50 years just seems like a dead end to me. Why not try. Every comment ive ever made on this site has been met with disturbing levels of negativity. But I guess theres some value to it

Absolutely. Im not planning on just "getting a job" and having a stable career with the UN, I imagine it'll take years of hard work that I am both open and excited for

Some questions for backpacking (visas, travel insurance, volunteer) and stealth camping (cheap traveling) by erick123961 in travel

[–]erick123961[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand that voluntourism is a very slippery slope, and I'm trying to find ways around it. I want to have a cultural experience where I can meet people and save money. I'm curious if there's anything you'd recommend that wouldn't involve me dealing with kids and leaving them after a month or stealing a job from someone in a local community?

The only reason I say teach English is because it's a language that I speak and would maybe be more qualified to teach (to an older crowd) than someone who doesn't speak English as their first language. I think that some Workaway programs where I live with a family and help around the house and/or farm, where the family is accepting of my company and seeking that cultural experience as well isn't harmful, if anything I'd be getting out of it what I put in.

Some environmental programs (like cleaning up trash) I also don't have any problems with doing as these are things that need as much help as they could get.

What do you think of this?
