I spent 6 weeks working at Assis through ImpacTrip and it was well worth the time. My Spanish speaking abilities were lackluster, but I was still received very well by the locals. Overall, the work kept me busy, the people made it fun, and the location was peak. Thanks Clara, Buse, Davide, Alex, Amalia, and everyone else I met!

What inspired you to travel abroad?
I always enjoyed being a volunteer from a young age. I like the feeling of being useful and using my time in a profitable way. I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to be involved in several volunteer projects the past years and I felt like it was time now to be in the background of the action, therefore it was an amazing surprise that this position was open and that I had the opportunity to join the team.

What inspired you to travel abroad?
I first heard about ImpacTrip when a friend of mine told me that Rita was planning to return to Portugal and launch this company; we had all been studying at the same college in Lisboa, NOVA School of Business and Economics. I always had the willingness to perform a role with a positive social and environmental impact, given that I had been a volunteer for many years and that I had focused my masterâs in management in social enterprise.
