Hey I'm Meg! I caught the travel bug at 19 and haven't been able to stop. While I do work full time now, my job allows me a lot of freedom for wonderful adventures around the world. I am extroverted, organized and love to capture my experiences through video & photography.

A must-watch for any new Worldpacker! The videos are short, clear, and give great tips on how to prepare for the first volunteering experience

I would highly recommend this course to anyone becoming a volunteer. It helps you understand not only how to find the right hosts, but also how to stay safe, handle emergencies, and navigate conflict situations. Most importantly, it's not just about finding cheap accommodation, but about putting in real effort, getting the absolute most out of what you contribute, and having a truly positive experience.
