You will live in 2-3 bedroom apartments with private rooms. All of our apartments also have high-speed internet, and backup internet. In Thailand, there is also an option to stay in a private studio.
The staff will be available throughout the program, beginning before participants depart for Southeast Asia to assist with booking flights, information on visas, vaccinations, etc. In country, staff is available to support for any need.
You will live, work and travel with a group of diverse remote professionals. Each week, in a group dinner participants have a chance to try a new local flavor, and get to know other participants in the program. We’ll discuss our experiences from the week and invite guests from the community to join us.
The program provider is your cultural insider. We'll help you dig deeper into the local culture by providing you access to the best local events and by offering trips and activities trips for the whole group. You will also have the opportunity to learn Thai through immersion or through Thai lessons arranged by VWI with a local tutor.
We will match you with a personalized skills-based volunteer opportunity. We match our Venturers with a project based on the needs of our organizations as well as the skills and interests of each participant. We will also coordinate visits to various partner sites, so that you will also have the opportunity to view the work of your peers.
