1. Can I have my money back if I decide not to travel anymore?

YES – participants can always have their money back if they change their minds about the travel. We have to be notified within one month before departure.

2. When do I show my interest in traveling?

It is absolutely left to you to decide, but it is advised that your interest in participation is announced early enough (2-3 months before departure, sometimes 6 months - 1 year before, depending on your individual schedules). Meanwhile some projects are over-booked so the earlier we know about your intentions, the better it is for us to arrange your project and other important things. If necessary, we are also able to organize last-minute-travel.

3. What next after announcing my interest?

NCF shall send you a written confirmation, accepting or rejecting your request. If it is accepted, the letter shall also contain all important information about your destination, how to acquire your visa, what you will need for your travel etc.

4. Can I tour whiles volunteering?

YES – It is absolutely decided by you whether or not you want to travel during your free time. To our mind it is important and helpful that you discover the country and associate yourself with natives.

5. How much knowledge of English do I need?

Basic knowledge of English shall be adequate for almost all the projects. Meanwhile, we shall notify you if the need for excellent knowledge in English is required.

6. Who will organize my visa?

You are responsible for organizing your own visa for the travel. We shall make available to you all necessary information you need to acquire the visa without any problems.

7. What about insurance?

It is highly recommended. You shall need a comprehensive travel insurance to cover you while in the practical world. In particular we recommend you to have a health and personal liability insurance. Please discuss with your insurance agent.

8. When do I travel?

It is absolutely left to you to decide when you want to travel. Our projects run all year through, though some of them have specified times of recess.

9. Will I be picked at the airport?

YES – One of our coordinators will meet you at the airport and bring you to the practical home.

10. Is my flight transportation included in the participation fee?

What other costs that are not covered by the fee do I have to consider?

NO – the fee does not include your flight transportation. Apart from that you have to consider the costs for your insurances, medical prophylaxis and vaccinations, your visa application fee, traveling and transportation in the practical country as well as personal purchases.
