So why are we, as a 'Make Money While Traveling' website, focusing on volunteering for this month's Interviews With Travel Income Experts series? Well, our whole philosophy is to help you generate enough income to live a comfortable life, then we to encourage you to give back! So, giving and volunteering are the pinnacle experiences in travel.

Our featured expert this month, Sarah Carroll, has completed an incredible task for you: she has listed hundreds of hostels overseas that help their guests find FREE volunteer placements in their local communities…

VolunteeringForFree.org was set up in response to the hundreds of volunteer agencies charging ludicrous sums of money to assist volunteers with organizing work overseas. These agencies have turned volunteering into a hugely profitable business and, as such, run the risk of exploiting volunteers and the projects they claim to support. "Volunteering For Free" provides the volunteer with a way of accessing information on working abroad without using agencies by listing hundreds of hostels worldwide that help their guests to find volunteer work with local organizations for free.

Sarah founded and started Moshi's famed "Hostel Hoff." (Yes, it's named after David Hasselhoff and there is a full-sized cardboard cutout of the shirtless Baywatch star greeting you at the doorway…) Hoff is a hostel with a unique approach to hosteling because it focuses on solely providing volunteering opportunities for it's guests. When she 'retired' from 'Hoff,' she broadened her scope for assisting those who wish to volunteer overseas by creating a directory of low and no-cost 'volunteer overseas for free' opportunities.

In this month's expert interview about how to Volunteer Overseas for Free, you're going to discover:

• How to avoid spending 4-8x times too much by going through a 'Volunteers Agency'
• Project ideas and an overview of what you can do overseas
• How to 'test the waters' before committing to a long term-project that you won't necessarily enjoy… without stepping on anyone's toes!
• How to actually help in an overseas volunteer project… as opposed to becoming a burden to other workers and the community

"If you want to find out exactly how to make tons of money, travel all over the world, and have a great time doing it, these are your guys. "

 
"At first after hearing about John and Tyson's system I was a bit skeptical, but after following through with everything that they have taught me I now live my dream traveling the world and you know what the best part about it is, I get paid traveling the world and going to the places that I've always dreamed about going to. John and Tyson's system has really made my dream come true."

 
"John & Tyson offer one of the best experiences out there. It doesn't matter if you a travel junky, thrill seeker, history buff or what ever. This is an opportunity to see the world as it really is with your own to eyes."

 
"Follow John and Tyson's advice and you'll be wanting a vacation from your "paid vacation"

 
"I've traveled to 3 continents and i can tell you- money is the hardest thing to come by while you're out there. Follow Tyson and John's advice, and you can travel until you're sick of it."

 
"I can never forget the days I got to travel around the world in 100 days on a cruise ship through a study abroad program called Semester at Sea. I've been dreaming about it ever since but could not put myself back into the regular traveling life again due to money issues. Now I can finally go live in all the places I ever wanted to and make that my life."

 
"If you're interested in traveling the world and not having the stress or worries of
money, then follow Tyson and John's system and travel forever if you want."

 
"I'm new to this information, but I've already been to a website that John and Tyson mentioned and found jobs I can do while sitting at home or in Paris! I'm excited to try this out!"

Ever heard of Elance jobs? What if I told you that you can pick and choose the jobs that you want? You can work from wherever you want. And you even decide how much you get paid for the work. Honestly could it get any better than that? This 41 minute interview is with Jon Diller who works at Elance.com's product and promotional development branch. He's going to lay out exactly how you can do just that!

By getting Elance jobs you can dump your traditional office space and take jobs from anywhere in the world. Seriously, a Starbucks in New York City, beach in Vietnam, or cruise ship in the middle of the Atlantic. You name it. It's doable.

Elance is, essentially, a platform for professional employment. Providers (like you) can can find clients and provide their professional services. Thousands of jobs are posted on the website every day and they essentially fall into one of three 'buckets…'

• IT related work  – programming and technical skill
• Creative – graphic design, illustration, marketing
• Operational work – administrative, customer support, finance, legal, and business operations.

What Elance Jobs Mean For You

If you think about it, that basically means that ANYONE can do this! Elance jobs can all be done remotely and delivered over the internet. This is why they're SO appealing for travelers and people who have never been able to work in a traditional 'office' environment.

If you think getting elance jobs is small-time stuff, you need to seriously think again! Over 300 million dollars worth of work has been completed. Yep, that a million with an 'M.' That, and 35,000 new jobs are posted each month that pay anywhere from a competitive hourly wage to up to several thousands of dollars for a single project.

Why is this appealing? Businesses are looking for new ways to hire people and new ways to utilize their budgets without having to cover the overhead of expenses. This is a trend that's growing at an incredible rate as it's a more cost-effective solution for companies. You'll see business owners with massive businesses, yet the 'in office' teams consist of only a few (or less!) people.

Why hiring out elance jobs is desirable from an employer's perspective:

In this 'Elance Jobs & Traveling Freelance Work Available" interview with Jon Diller, you'll discover…

• The step-by-step process to get up and running and get your first client… FAST!
• How to build your online reputation to easily win new clients
• Bare minimum you need is a computer (or access to a computer) and an internet connection. As long as you have the programs on your computer that will allow you to complete the work, you'll be full-equipped for business.
• Note: When you travel to places where the cost-of-living is low, you can leverage the amount of money you'll make! Essentially, you can make a 'Western' wage while you live in the location of your choosing.
• How to maximize your profile's 'salability,' meaning, how to make your profile a client-getting powerhouse of a webpage so that you sell the maximum amount of services humanly possible.
• Decide whether you want to be paid on an hourly basis or whether you want to be paid on the final delivered product
• How to guarantee that you'll get paid. Yep… you make your money quickly and on time and you can guarantee that you'll get cash in hand!
• How to get an endless stream of future jobs, referrals, and more work that you can handle so that you don't have to 'market' yourself more than in the beginning stages.

You'll be blown away by this interview when you see how incredibly fun and easy it is to get Elance jobs and make a serious freelance income while traveling.

If so, then you're in luck, because this month our featured interview is with Stuart Macpherson with Global Visions International, one of the largest and most well-respected volunteer vacations companies. They have over 150 projects available spanning across more than 40 countries. Stu does an incredible job laying out an objective and honest look (and incredibly contagious!!) at what it's like to do volunteer vacations.

So why cover Volunteer Vacations in a MoneyForTraveling.com interview? It's simple, really: As amazing as it is to make money while traveling, at one point, a traveler's focus will shift. Traveling typically begins with selfish sightseeing. Next, a person will feel a desire to be connected with communities and people, Finally, a traveler becomes a volunteer and will begin giving back and making a difference.

Some people make the metamorphosis quickly and some never make it at all. For followers of the MoneyForTraveling.com income systems, however, this is the ultimate 'end result' in our opinion. There's no better use of your travel dollars than by giving back and helping to improve the places that make a location so desirable to visit in the first place! This is where life and travels become overwhelmingly fulfilling.

This is why I had to pin down Stuart and have him explain everything that goes into doing a volunteer vacation!

Before I share the interview, let me be clear: there are adventures out there that will appeal to everyone. All ages, backgrounds, and skill levels can volunteer in some capacity. Not only that, but there are volunteer vacations and opportunities on 6 continents. Timeframes range from 1 week to 2+ years. Some of the subject areas are environmental research, education, conservation, teaching, community development.

So what do volunteer vacations look like? Try some of these trips on for size:

• Tracking animal patterns to collect data that is essential in maintaining the animal's natural environment and heritage.
• Coral reef health monitoring in the Seycheles
• Teaching indigenous communities in South America
• Elephant conservation in Southeast Asia
• Giant Tortoise and endemic species conservation in the Indian Ocean.
• Types of positions and opportunities where a long-term impact can be made.
• Teaching English in China, working in orphanages in Africa, and community education in Nepal.
• Construction projects in the Ecuadorian Andes.
• Too many more to list… so let's get to the interview!
