ImpacTrip

I volunteered with ImpacTrip in Barcelona in the Community Support / Homeless Program, and overall, it was a really meaningful and positive experience. I loved meeting volunteers from so many different countries — the atmosphere was super open, friendly, and international. The coordinators were always supportive, kind, and well-organized, which made everything run smoothly. The volunteering itself was eye-opening and felt impactful, especially the daily interactions with the people we supported. The only downside for me was the accommodation: the hostel we stayed in was quite far from the city center, which sometimes made it a bit inconvenient. Still, the overall experience was definitely worth it, and I’m glad I chose this program. I learned a lot, met amazing people, and would recommend ImpacTrip to anyone looking for a meaningful way to volunteer abroad.

I ended up staying in the program for a week. I loved working with the cats and the people there, who were all really sweet. The program coordinator makes sure you get there the first day and is always responsive to and questions you have. Overall, I would 100% go back!

This nine-week trip was an incredible opportunity to discover the flora and fauna of the Mediterranean Sea. We had amazing instructors who, over the course of the weeks, trained us at different levels and in different activities (deep diving, night diving, etc.). The ImpactTrip team was also incredibly kind and supportive, whether it was helping us upon arrival, giving us advice, assisting us, or organizing games during our weekly meetings. The atmosphere in Barcelona is exceptional, with many beautiful monuments and activities to enjoy. In short, it was an incredible program that I highly recommend.
