What can I expect as a volunteer in Thailand?

Best known for the opulent Grand Palace, ancient ruins and temples, Bangkok is the iconic capital of Thailand. A volunteer in Bangkok will experience an immense variety of cultural activities. Wat Arun, Wat Pho and the Emerald Buddha Temple are among the city’s unique attractions. Life in rural thailand is far calmer and closer to contact with nature and animals. In such regions of Thailand it’s also possible to volunteer with animals like elephants and birds.

What kind of work can a volunteer do in Thailand?

What better way to get to know a country than helping its people? There’re creative ways to bring meaning to your visit to an orphanage, even for a short time. Such places need teachers, sports coaches, art instructors and extra-class activities to enrich the children’s school experience and basically improve their lives. An hour of your time can make a difference. Other way to help is to volunteer with wildlife. Chiang mai Elephant Sanctuary is an example of such place.
