PART I READING

A. DIRECTIONS: Read the text and answer the questions.

What is Voluntourism?
Voluntourism is a new way of traveling that is becoming increasing popular around the world.
Voluntourism is when people volunteer overseas while they travel. Voluntourism is aimed at
helping other people and it involves tourists going on holiday or missions to help out on a
specific project.
This volunteer work overseas needs not only the duties a volunteer will do, but it also gives a
chance for tourists to discover new places, experience a foreign culture, and learn more
about people in other countries. The time spent becomes an exciting and fulfilling holiday
because you get to immerse yourself in another world while helping out those in need.
Volunteer travel is a lot more sustainable as well because it deviates from the typical
indulgent holiday. In voluntourism, you get to be responsible for the growth and change of
others which is an experience unlike any other. This makes your trip to another country worth
so much more than just having fun the whole time.
1) Where do people go for Voluntourism?
