A career break in Bolivia is an excellent choice if you fancy the idea of travelling somewhere a little more ‘off the beaten track’. If you take a career break in Bolivia you can explore one of South America’s most remote countries and experience a way of life and culture life that remains largely unaffected by the tourist trail even to this day. There’s a hugely diverse range of landscapes to discover on a Bolivia career break too – from the Andes Mountains to the tropical rainforests of the Amazon. An absolute ‘must visit’ on a career break in Bolivia is Lake Titicaca – the world’s highest navigable lake, which looks more like an inland sea dominated by magnificent views of the Andes.
Bolivia career break
A large percentage of Bolivia’s population lives below the poverty line – so there is some really worthwhile Bolivia voluntary work to get involved in. We have a number of rewarding Bolivia career break projects to choose from – which are dedicated to improving the lives of disadvantaged people or communities. Bolivia career break programmes also include Spanish tuition.
Learn enough Spanish to chat with the locals, travel around South America and make your ideas understood on a volunteer programme. Cultural activities and excursions will help you get the most out of your stay.
Make life a little brighter for orphans in Bolivia. Organise dancing, music, painting and sports classes, help cook and feed them – but most of all, give them the love and attention many miss out on.
Give orphans and vulnerable children the chance of a better future. Work at a centre and help them learn vital skills such as English, manual labour and sports – essential if they don’t go onto university.
Discover why so many people love Bolivia. Take Spanish lessons and learn to salsa, do some valuable volunteer work with children or animals, visit the highest city in the world, meet the indigenous Tacana people and lots more.
Spend 5 months or more on an amazing gap year in Latin America. This programme provides all the structure you need, with lots of activities including Spanish lessons, volunteering with wildlife or disadvantaged street children.
