Volunteer Tourism

While many fancy traveling solely to deviate from a normal routine and venture into nature, there is a cohort that prefers to travel and help others at the same time. This very need has resulted in the advent of Volunteer Tourism. Volunteer Tourism basically includes tourists going on vacations with a mission of helping out in a particular project or a certain target area. The main goal here is to help the people who are in need of service in the social and economic aspects of society. Nepal, largely a developing country, is built with societies and a populace which are relatively distant from the normal conventions of modernization. On top of that, natural disasters like landslides and earthquakes have made daily life in rural areas harsher than usual. Thus, Volunteer Tourism has now become one of the best and most effective ways to contribute to and rebuilt the remote communities in this Himalayan nation.
