Description

Have a life-changing experience in Vietnam while you spend time volunteering during the week, and explore your local community and the country during the weekends! Volunteer 15 hours each week in Vietnam in exchange for free room and board. Conversation Partners are placed in either Ho Chi Min City or Hanoi. Weekends are usually free to explore local sites. You can even choose to spend one month in Ho Chi Min City and one month in Hanoi.

Highlights

* Travel for less.
* You put in a couple of hours each day literally talking, and the rest of your time is spent traveling and experiencing the culture in depth.
* Do you want to learn Vietnam or brush up on your language skills? We can help arrange optional language classes for you. It's up to you.
* Tip the advantage to you by enhancing your resume by volunteering with the Conversation Corps. Job: "Private Language Tutor." References: Global. It just doesn't get any better than that.
* Exclusive materials written by GeoVisions staff will give you "a bag of tricks" as you engage your new family.
* Join our Facebook Fan page and begin the conversation now. And when you come back, our Returnee network is a great place to share your experiences.
