Hey I'm Meg! I caught the travel bug at 19 and haven't been able to stop. While I do work full time now, my job allows me a lot of freedom for wonderful adventures around the world. I am extroverted, organized and love to capture my experiences through video & photography.

I really enjoyed the Worldpackers course and the teaching method. The content was clear and easy to understand, which helped me learn more about the platform, how it works, and what is expected from both hosts and volunteers.
The course clarified our responsibilities and the importance of commitment, communication, and respect during the exchange. Overall, it was very helpful and made me feel more confident and prepared to use the platform and start my Worldpackers experience.

This course taught me about trip planning, picking a host that works best for me, and preparing myself for unwanted scenarios. I learned how I can call for help if I feel uncomfortable and protect myself in a foreign country.
