My Travel Story

by: Tia K Start Date: Jan 29, 2026 - End Date: Mar 14, 2026
Hi, I’m Tia.
I’m currently in Vietnam, traveling through Southeast Asia while supporting myself through volunteer exchanges and creative work.
 
Right now, I’m between confirmed volunteer placements. I’ve been actively applying to opportunities in Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia through platforms like Worldpackers, but many positions are full due to seasonal demand and timing. This has created a short, unexpected gap.
 
I usually support myself by selling handmade crochet pieces, but sales have been very quiet lately. This campaign is to help cover essential transition costs so I can reach my next volunteer placement and continue working through exchange-based opportunities.
 
Funds raised will go toward transportation, visa fees, and basic travel needs during this transition.
 
Thailand is my next intended destination because it offers affordable living, strong volunteer networks, and a peaceful environment where I can reliably secure volunteer work.
 
In exchange, I offer practical support including housekeeping and organization, kitchen help, pet care, creative handmade work, and reliable assistance in community spaces.
 
Thank you for taking the time to read. Any support, including sharing this page, truly helps.
