What Is Voluntourism? The Volunteer Check List!
Показать описание
To our Patreon supporters - don't worry :) we have found an amazing project to partner with and we have donated to them already and this will be shown to you in tomorrows episode.
This video is not part of series 2 but simply a support video to the next episode (Episode 7 - Nicaragua)
As travelers we believe we have a responsibility to be informed and to always travel as responsibly as possible. This video is a sum up of how I feel about a very controversial topic that we're not talking about, voluntourism.
Regardless of how you feel about it, remaining blissfully ignorant is not an option. It's time to start the conversation about voluntourism. It's time to ruffle a few feathers and stop walking on egg shells in an attempt to avoid feeling uncomfortable!
NOT ALL volunteer projects are bad however, it is important to do your research and carefully look into any project before getting involved. Always think critically and use your gut!
Love and responsible adventures to you all!! xx Lina
DISCLAIMERS
1. Wanting to volunteer and help others always comes from a good place. I know this.
2. THESE ARE NOT LINDSAY MC'S OPINIONS. I cannot speak on her behalf.
3. I am not an expert. I am simply drawing from my studies, my own independent research and my personal experiences.
4. I love Paddy and Thijs and this video is not meant to insult them, their work or their character in any way. I love my boys unspeakable amounts! ❤
