You Got Sold on the Dream ✨

20s and 30s, living out of a backpack.
Working on farms.
Chasing sunsets and waterfalls.
Sharing meals with strangers who feel like family.

You’ve scrolled through the photos, watched the reels,
and even bookmarked a few “this could be me” opportunities.

And maybe you’ve had a few “What if I actually did this?” moments.

But then reality hits:
💸 How do I afford it?
🌍 Where do I find these opportunities?
😬 How do I even start?

Turn those “one day…” thoughts into a booked trip where you’re helping, exploring, and living your dream

I’ve waited long enough — let’s do this! ✈️


Frustrated woman with head down on a table, holding a phone, next to an open laptop and notebook — feeling overwhelmed or burnt out while working.

You:

  • Saved a dozen (or more) reels of people happily volunteering around the world and you’re ready to take the leap—but you just don’t know where to start.
  • Read blog posts, watched YouTube videos, and binge-scrolled Reddit… but still couldn’t figure out how to actually get started.
  • Really want to volunteer, but you don’t have the time (or patience) to spend hours figuring it all out by yourself.
  • Signed up for Workaway or Worldpackers… and weeks later, you’re still not accepted by a single host.

VOLUNTEER TRAVELERS BOOTCAMP

  • This works even if you never volunteered before (yes, you can get accepted without any references)
  • Only one afternoon to complete each weekly task (perfect for even the busiest schedule)
  • Lifetime access — enjoy every future update for your volunteer and work exchange trips, free forever.

You might be…

  • An experienced traveler ready to try volunteering for the first time
  • A remote worker or gap year student trying to make your travels more affordable
  • Someone who’s already applied (and been rejected) and is now wondering what you’re doing wrong
  • Or just someone who wants to give back and explore —without compromising your safety or sanity

Whatever your starting point, the goal is the same.

No guesswork.
No spammy copy-paste messages.
No overwhelm trying to figure it all out on your own.
Just a clear, proven system that works

Whether you’re planning months in advance or booking a last-minute trip.

If you’ve ever thought:

“I know I could do this… I just need someone to show me what works, step by step.”

Then you’re exactly who I built this for.

I Had No Idea How Hard It Was—If I Did, I Probably Wouldn’t Have Gone Either

When I quit my job to travel full-time, and won a round-trip ticket to LA at the airport.

I decided to backpack the US for five months .

I didn’t want to blow through my savings, so I figured I’d try volunteering.

I had no experience. No references. No idea what I was doing.

Still, I got accepted by my first host within 48 hours —and three more hosts in the next days, completing my free stay in the US.

But it’s not just a free stay.

I went on:

🚢 Glacier cruise
🚁 Helicopter ride and landed on a glacier
🌌 Saw the Northern Lights
🥾 Hiked on ice
🐎 Learned how to ride a horse
🏔️ Climbed two 14,000 ft mountains
— ALL FOR FREE!

I also met volunteers who became my close friends, whom I’m still in contact with today, helped small local businesses and farm ranches, and immersed myself in different cultures I would not have experienced in any tour!

These are not any volunteering gigs—these were the ones I actually wanted to do.

Everyone around me was curious:

“Wait—how did you get hosts to say yes so quickly?”
“Where do you even find these kinds of trips?”

That’s when I realized what felt “easy” for me… isn’t for most people.

I met so many travelers who never went because they were overwhelmed.
And others who did start—only to leave early because they chose the wrong host.

I cracked the code. I turned it into a system. An this exact system is what you’ll get.

Volunteer Travelers Bootcamp is a self-paced, step-by-step program that shows you exactly how to get accepted to volunteer abroad—without the stress, confusion, or wasting hours trying to figure it out on your own.

Meet Gladis

Full-Time Traveler & Experienced Volunteer

I didn’t quit a six-figure job or have a powerful passport. I grew up in a low-income family in the Philippines, and the only reason I got on a plane at 18 was through a student exchange program. I packed canned tuna and crackers because I couldn’t afford to eat out… but I was hooked.

Since then, I’ve lived in 6 countries and traveled to 30+ more. In 2024, I quit my job and began traveling full-time, made possible through volunteering abroad.

I created Volunteer Travelers Bootcamp because I realized most people don’t struggle with the desire to volunteer—they struggle with the process. They get overwhelmed. Rejected. Or worse, they never go at all.

This is the course I wish I had when I started. And now, it’s yours. Let’s make your dream of meaningful, stress-free travel actually happen.

Imagine… 💭
It’s 30 days from now and you’re in a quaint Italian town, meeting locals, and making memories you’ll tell for a lifetime…

FAQs

Absolutely. Volunteer Travelers Bootcamp was designed with beginners in mind. Whether you’ve never volunteered or never even traveled solo, the course walks you through every single step—from picking the right host to making sure your first trip is safe, meaningful, and actually enjoyable.

I recommend using a paid platform like Workaway or Worldpackers because they offer helpful safety features and filters that make your experience smoother. You can get $10 off Worldpackers using this link and 1 extra month with Workaway using this link.

That said, the strategies inside this course also work with free platforms, aggregators, and even Facebook volunteer groups.

Perfect! This course shows you exactly how to use those platforms the right way—what to say in your profile, how to get hosts to notice you, and which ones to avoid.

By default, this panel is concealed and appears when the user clicks on the section title. Input relevant information about its title using paragraphs or bullet points. Accordions can enhance the user experience when utilized effectively. They allow users to choose what they want to read and disregard the rest. Accordions are often utilized for frequently asked questions (FAQs).

You’ll get group support through the private Facebook group. I answer questions, give host feedback, and do short Loom videos when something needs extra clarity.

But if you want personalized 1:1 coaching, detailed application audits, or WhatsApp access—you need to upgrade to the Get Accepted Fast Audit.

Yes! I offer a 14-day action-based guarantee. If you go through the first 3 phases, apply to at least 5 hosts using what you’ve learned, and still feel it’s not the right fit, just email your completed work—and I’ll issue a full refund.
