Global Village Volunteers
The authors of this blog are currently in Quetzaltenango (aka Xela), Guatemala with a group of 27 Global Village volunteers ("GVers"). Some on their ninth trip, some on their first—collectively this group has completed 104 trips in total. That’s right, 104.How can that be, you ask? Because Global Village trips offer a little bit of everything and are the most addicting experience of all time. At this point, you may be wondering if there are statistics to back this up. Short answer: no.
But luckily, we did the leg work here and got some casual feedback from this exceptionally experienced (and inexperienced) group. Following you will find a list of Global Village "Do’s", "Don’ts" and "Myth Busters". Here goes!
After reading this list, we hope you find yourself inspired, motivated, and excited to the point that you decide to explore the possibility of becoming a future "GVer" yourself. It is an amazing experience that stays with you forever - making an impact in a community is an experience that is totally worth having.
Thank you to our amazing teams, this trip wouldn’t be the same without you!
