As
is typical in this dates do a New Year's Resolution I will do one
too, but a little bit different, because it's a resolution that I
can't do it right now but with some years I hope yes.
As I said in this blog so many times one of my biggest wishes is travel arround the world and visit as many countries as I can. But obviously that requires a lot of money and since I don't have a rich family I've had to research a lot and finally I found my perffect solution: Workaway.
Workaway is a site to promote exchange between persons who wants to travel with people of all the world who are looking for some type of help. They provide you food and accommodation in exchange for a few hours of work.
That
aren't the typical holidays where you stay in a five stars hotel and
you do nothing except enjoy it, but you have to sacrifice something
to accomplish your dreams.
But obviously this method of travel has a number of benefits and here there's some of them:
-Save money
This
is the most the most obvious
benefit because yo don't have to pay for meals or accommodation.
-Know the local culture
You
are going to stay with people who lives in that country who can show
you places,teach you local stories and historical significance of
different places, that means you are getting involved in the
community, and that is how you are going to learn about different
lifestyles.
-Learn new skills
-Experience life in someone else’s shoes
You
appreciate things you may have taken for granted
-Learn a new language
Depending
at the place are you gonna stay,they may talk a different language
than yours, for that reason you are forced to learn that language to
communicate with them.
