Knitmeascarf! Allison Goes to Peru. Crew Wanted. Newest submissions : sailingcrew. The NeuroSoup Trip Guide by Krystle Cole. Note to the Reader During the peak of one of my first LSD trips I came to the realization that all the knowledge of the universe was at my fingertips.
So, I seized the moment and asked myself some the universal questions I had always wondered about. I started with, "Why are we all here? " And the answer came into my head as one word, "LOVE. " Then I asked myself, "What is the purpose of this life? " As you can begin to see, entheogens have helped shape, or unshape, my psyche and attitudes toward life. Entheogens were a complete wake-up call for me; they totally changed my perspective on the nature of reality. I am not alone in this belief; during a study at the Johns Hopkins Medical Institution, researchers gave 36 volunteers psilocybin, the active constituent in hallucinogenic mushrooms. At the same time, I was also compelled to write this book for the purpose of harm reduction. Krystle Cole Topeka, Kansas October 2008. Erowid. Free Voluntary Work Programs in Peru.

How to Volunteer Abroad for Free. Originally published on January 6th, 2011 by Laura Walker.
Volunteering abroad is an opportunity to share your skills, knowledge, and enthusiasm, while immersing yourself in a unique culture, discovering new places and contributing to a good cause. However, the price tags on some programs can scare off volunteers before they even open their destination's guidebook. Free projects, because they're usually run by smaller organizations, tend to be less organized, so you'll need to take initiative to get as much out of the experience as possible.
Yes, there are plenty of programs that charge to participate in their volunteer programs (and most of them have good reasons for doing so!). Still, there are also a number of low-cost or even "free" volunteer opportunities out there -- they're just sometimes a little harder to find. But you found us, so we're going to help you out on your search for free volunteer opportunities abroad.
