The future (of travel) feels like a big piece of blank paper. No one seems to know when things will change again and what it will look like.⁠
⁠
If you could make one wish for travel and/or volunteering industry – what would it be?⁠

What is the difference between helping your home c

What is the difference between helping your home country or continent to helping abroad?⁠
⁠
The first thing is: preparation is key for both of them. While one of them might be more intuitive concerning the culture and language, traveling abroad comes with a lot more things to learn and prepare for.⁠
⁠
Another one is luggage and clothing. You might know the social guidelines in your home country but this is different from other parts of the world⁠
⁠
Travel time and costs - with a long journey often comes more costs as well. You should plan for both of these aspects.⁠
⁠
Do you have other things to add or experience with either one of the options?⁠

Traveling in Europe or in your own country is diff

Traveling in Europe or in your own country is different from the trip abroad. While we also love to explore destinations nearby, there is something to completely leaving your familiar surroundings and travel to other continents.⁠
⁠
How are you feeling about this? What do you miss about travelling abroad?⁠
⁠
The food, the smells, the curiosity, the landscape, temperatures …⁠

When we hear “Volunteering” we immediately hav

When we hear “Volunteering” we immediately have a certain image in our head. For some it might be helping locally and for some helping in exotic places. Nevertheless, there is always this notion of: someone is more fortunate or wealthy to help another person or group of people.⁠
While the idea seems to be very noble when we have a first look it can also reconfirm certain stereotypes or even cause harm.⁠
⁠
We thought a lot about the term “Volunteering” and whether we like it. In the end, the idea is to totally change the concept into something more like honest encounters. Curious conversations on eye level and sharing thoughts and skills.⁠
⁠
What do you think? Is it a good idea to use the word “Volunteering”? Any other suggestions?⁠

More than a year ago I travelled to Borneo, Malays

More than a year ago I travelled to Borneo, Malaysia. I had the opportunity to meet Mark from the organization SAVE rivers. We talked about the damage of dams to the environment and the people and I learned a lot about local advocacy.
One huge problem besides palm oil is the deforestation for timber. Although Malaysia has committed to complying the MTCS label for sustainable timber, Safe rivers claims that the reality looks different. They used to label to certificate conflict timber.

They started a petition (link below) to ask for transparency, consultation with local communities and a commitment to actually comply with the certification requirements.

One thing I learnt on my travels over and over aga

One thing I learnt on my travels over and over again. We should collaborate, learn from each other, be curious, open for solutions and different perspectives. Think global.⁠
⁠
But when it comes to changing things, it happens here. On our doorstep. Small communities, solidarity, local businesses and local production. To actually know where our stuff is coming from, without a long journey and a big carbon footprint.⁠
⁠
Going from big to small - for me this is not a step backwards but a conscious step in a new direction. Where we don’t allow ourselves to be fooled and actually know what is happing right here. Where small things matter and we maybe come closer to each other again. Intimate instead of anonymous. Act local.⁠
⁠
This goes far beyond travel or volunteering, right?⁠
