Additional Information:

Volunteer projects and internship opportunities with Travellers Worldwide provide an opportunity to take education outside of the traditional classroom setting. For 16 years, Travellers Worldwide has been providing students and adults with volunteer projects and internships overseas. Join us during a holiday break, a vacation, a gap year, or any time of year that you feel the need to immerse yourself in a new culture and help those in need at the same time! Volunteers use our projects to learn more about themselves before jumping into college, some volunteers find that they need a career break while others explore their intended education career path or maybe even discover their true passions in life. There's a big world out there….it would be a shame to miss it!

Setting: Let BRAZIL be your classroom! Brazil's colorful diversity and geographical abundance seem to embody everything that is best in South America. The Amazon flows through its heart! There is a dazzling string of great cities along its coast - the pulse-pounding resort of Rio de Janeiro; sprawling, metropolitan Sao Paulo; and, further north, the entrancing canals and bustling piers of Recife. We have programs in two very different locations. You can choose between the dazzling city of Rio de Janeiro and the beach paradise Florianópolis. A world of contrasts! Alternatively, why not combine your placement and visit them both....? If you are looking for an injection of life to make you feel alive, Brazil is the place for you!

Referrals: WHAT OUR PARTICIPANTS SAY…

""The placement has incredible job satisfaction, unrivalled by that of teaching teenagers or older students, as a bond develops between us and the children. As many come from broken homes and/or are stricken by poverty, they look to us as father figures. For instance in a week we are taking them to the local zoo, somewhere they may never have been able to go. We are also trying to take them to the Falls, yet this will be very complicated so may not happen, also obvious safety issues are a concern. However, normally safety issues are not that much of a concern at the crèche compared to the dreadful 'sue culture' coming about in England. They hurt themselves playing football or jumping about on the concrete, yet they pick themselves up and learn not to do it again. It is actually quite refreshing to be able to see kids play properly again". -Travellers volunteer, Chris Bodych, on his placement
