It’s hard to choose where our favorite beaches on the north coast of the Dominican Republic are, but we're here to talk about a couple that consistently make their way into ILP volunteers' top picks.

Float down the Mekong River by day and shop until you drop at the largest handicraft market in all of Laos by night in Luang Prabang!

Wanting to travel + volunteer abroad and have authentic cultural experiences ... but not sure how to make it happen? That's where we come in!
