Maybe I’m the only one naive here, but if you have thought, like I sincerely did, that having a degree and a Master would have made your job hunting slightly easier...if after finishing your studies, you do feel the right to think "I made it! Now it can just get easier! After all, I’ve worked so hard for it!”…well, you couldn't be more wrong!
So here I am...leaving in January for a 5 months of volunteering in a micro-finance program in Uganda. Why? Well, because I want to be a relief worker...of course!
While looking for information about reliability of the organisations, costs, volunteering requirements and so on, I found particularly useful couple of blogs I found on the matter. So, I thought, maybe reading about my experience can be useful to someone else too! I spent so many hours in front of my laptop that I would define myself an expert in volunteering hunting.
Also, it will be a great way for my friends to see what I’m up to and, least but not last, I decided to try my luck and see if someone wants to support me with a donation, even a really tiny one, which would help me covering the costs of these 5 months (indeed, unfortunately all the expenses are on the volunteer).
