What's It Like To Volunteer Abroad?

Picture of Randy LeGrant Randy LeGrant : Updated on June 10, 2026

Broken Glass Blog Site Amy Segreti is currently participating on the GeoVisions Conversation Corps-Spain program. Her amazing Blog, Light On Broken Glass, has been running since last February. Amy is still in Spain and writes regularly.

We are always asked to provide testimonials for people interested in volunteering abroad, and we're finding active Blogs by volunteers still on assignment work even better than a testimonial to give a real flavor of the experience. Volunteers are on-site, and eager to receive comments. The responses are fresh and helpful. For other Blogs by GeoVisions' volunteers, be sure to click the Volunteer Blogs tag below or over on the right side under the Browse By Tag heading.

If you're thinking about volunteering abroad and you want to know what it's like first hand, contact Amy by reading her posts and then sending a comment. Not only that, you'll read some really good stuff. Amy has an incredible future ahead of her as a writer.
