Why traveling solo is a social experience

Volunteer projects in Indonesia

One shouldn’t be short on options to volunteer in Indonesia, a country formed by more than seventeen thousand little islands. The 5 main islands are Papua, Sulawesi, Java, Kalimantan and Sumatra. In any territory among those, you can find volunteer programs to help preserve the rainforests, teach English, work with wild animals in a sanctuary, or help a farmer with permaculture daily tasks. There is much to be done and your help can mean real change for the better.
