Welcome to the Voluntouring blog, a space dedicated to volunteer travel, alternative lifestyles and stories from travellers, volunteers, hosts and communities around the world.
In this blog you will find articles about:
- alternative ways of living,
- long-term travel,
- hitchhiking,
- nomad lifestyles and volunteering,
- volunteer testimonials and project experiences,
- interviews, and
- news from the world of responsible travel.
The Voluntouring blog also grows through voluntary article contributions from readers and followers. If you would like to share an experience, practical guide or reflection, you can write to us with your article idea.
You can also propose an interview or guest post about a relevant experience, community or project. Editorial articles and interviews are considered separately from volunteer opportunity listings.
If you are looking for volunteers, you can submit your opportunity for editorial review. Current publication conditions for hosts are explained in the FAQ for hosts.
