The Volunteer.


A young man of my acquaintance (he’s only 40) determined to pull his life around;, quit drinking and so forth, decided the best remedy was to do some volunteer work and experience another part of the globe.  After consulting on skills (he has many handy skills, carpentry, plumbing, car maintenance, ) he was sent to Honduras, to a ‘conservation project.’ Sounded good.  An Iguana Rescue Centre. Quaint, but promising. Two weeks after he achieved the long trek out he was texting back about lack of occupation and the bar culture of the workers already there.   Cr@p.
