What to do in your career break
Working on a volunteer project should be as rewarding an experience for you as it is for those you help, so choose the activity you enjoy most and that develops your skills. Everyone has skills to offer and i-to-i works with a diverse range of local projects so you can find the right volunteer job.
Getting a job in your career break
There are more choices than ever when it comes to working abroad, whether you’re looking for volunteer opportunities or paid work overseas. Your job is the key to understanding the place in which you travel and determines the people you’ll meet and the things you’ll do.
Volunteering in your career break
Volunteering abroad is a great way to give something back to the community in which you travel and it’s also an excellent way to learn about a place and its people. As more people tire of traditional tourism, volunteering has developed to benefit the traveller and local community alike.
