a) Best motivation for the voluntary work(special good skills and power are not necessary)
b) Responsibility to keep rules of NICE & the partners and cooperation to run the projects
c) Best efforts to understand and respect cultures both of the hosts and other volunteers
d) Open mind to make friends with trying to speak English (in the groups) and the local language
e) To adapt and enjoy simple conditions of the living such as food and accommodation
Though it'd be very funny and dramatic time for you, if your motivation is only for enjoying holidays, please don't apply and do just travel. If it is more for voluntary service to respect local culture and custom, to make a better world and friendship with local people and other volunteers, you are super welcome!!
