Voluntourism — New Trend in Travel
Volunteering to help people in need combined with travelling to faraway places is a new trend in the travel industry. It is called voluntourism. On the other side, they volunteer to help others who are not as well off as they are.
Recent statistics show that in the past few years voluntourism has been one of the fastest-growing areas of tourism. They work in orphanages (孤儿院), help build schools, assist in hospitals and do farm work in developing countries. Some of them establish lasting bonds with people far away.
Students see it as a gap year after school; others simply want to take some time off from a job and do something else. Then there are these who are bored and merely seek adventures. They think it is a cheap way of travelling and don't really want to get involved in hard work.
