Cambodia Experience
This fantastic 3 week programme offers an
opportunity to experience cultural activities, volunteering and sightseeing in
Cambodia.
You will spend the
majority of your time in Battambang, which is a peaceful and cozy town away from the regular tourist route, where we have a lovely volunteer house very close to the centre of the town.
As a participant on
this programme you will have the opportunity to get involved with some
volunteer work and you
can also participate in cultural activities and sightseeing excursions. This is
a fascinating programme, through which you can learn about Cambodian history and
culture, practise some basic Khmer language, try your hand at cooking delicious Cambodian
food, explore amazing Buddhist temples and ride on the famous bamboo train.
There will also be an excursion to Siem Reap where you can visit the
magnificent temples at Angkor Wat (at sunset and sunrise) and you can visit a
floating market at Tonle Sap.
The
volunteer work will involve working at a local NGO that focuses on protecting children
against all forms of violence, exploitation, abuse, trafficking and child
labour. You can teach English, arts & crafts, dance, music, drama, computers, sport
and we also encourage volunteers to teach children important life skills, such
as personal hygiene, HIV/AIDS awareness and social skills.
