In German, we have the term Fernweh (literally translated as „distance pain“) which describes the yen of seeing distant places. It is basically the opposite of homesickness and a feeling probably every travel addicted person knows – especially in these special times.
This article might be a bit different from my other ones – today I want to talk about voluntary work (ergo working without getting paid) and why it can be a great opportunity for you. (Just to clarify I’m more talking about clubs, associations and societies – not about an official gap year). In this blog post, I want to share my personal experiences with you. And I would like to introduce you to my student association AEGEE – at least this part is about travelling, I promise.
