Why not volunteer at summer camp in India? It's a great opportunity to travel cheap!

​ME.TALK - At Instagram I met some people of the Frobel's Residential High School in India. And they are searching volunteers for their school. They offer you free accommodation and food.

All you must do is some volunteer work. And you get some extra experience and learn much more about India and the culture than you ever can imagine. It’s not for tourists, it’s for travellers and adventures people who believe they can make this world better. Sorry I make difference in that. ​I was teaching in the past already a few times in Indonesia.

"Your accommodation and food will be our responsibility."

The school in India has its first summer camp end of April 2018 till begin of May 2018. “Actually, it’s the first time we are organizing such programme and we are thinking of inviting volunteers all through the year, anytime they find convenient. So, you can join us anytime and stay for as long as you want. When you are with us, your accommodation and food will be our responsibility,” said Saptarshi Mitra from the Frobel’s High School to me.
