Ethical Volunteering in Cambodia

Volunteering with Globalteer was an experience that will never leave me. The enthusiasm of the kids was infectious, they loved being at the Helping Hands project. I was so lucky to be with an amazing group of other volunteers from all around the world. We had so much fun together, both at the school and socially. Siem Reap is a wonderful little town, my kind of place, lots to do and laid back. I look forward to the day I go back, I know I will one day.

I was a bit nervous about going to Cambodia, but I was not disappointed. The Globalteer team in Siem Reap were so nice and helpful to a novice traveller! The project and kids were amazing and I felt so humbled to volunteer at Helping Hands school. The staff are making a real difference to the kids lives. I was lucky to meet so many nice people in Siem Reap, from the staff to other volunteers.

The project is in a small village outside of Siem Reap. The kids here have very little and the school gives them the opportunity of improving their lives. It was great to go out to the countryside every day and work at the project. The project is making a real difference to the kids lives and I hopefully contributed my small part in that. The kids were amazing, so keen to learn and be at the project. I will remember this for always!

This was an amazing experience for me, it really made me reconsider my life priorities. The children were amazing and the project was just fantastic. They are really making a difference to the community and I was proud to be part of it.
