Starting with Globalteer
How It Started: Kayla’s Journey to Cusco
Kayla learned about Globalteer from a friend, Jillian, who was working in the Cambodia office. She travelled in Southeast Asia and met Chris, the Operations Director, in Cambodia. Later, she earned a Communications Internship in Cusco, Peru.
Thus, before coming to Peru, Kayla got a head start by seeing the Northern Thailand Elephant Sanctuary. There, she wrote her first official intern blog. This shows how international volunteer organizations work.
What Is a Typical Day Like for a Communications Intern?
Kayla’s tasks in Cusco were varied and hands-on. Thus, the work done by interns is:
Managing Social Media
Interns help run Globalteer’s social media pages. Hence, they learn how to link with care workers and see data to improve outreach. This boosts ethical volunteering work.
Content Creation
Interns post blogs on care work skills and social causes. This helps raise concern about issues like elephant riding and bear bile farms. At the same time, they build strong interactions.
Project Visits
Interns often visit local projects. They log care work events through photos and videos. Thus, see the clear impact the project has made on the group.
Welcoming Care Workers
Interns also help newcomers fit into Cusco. They give advice and sometimes plan cultural exchange tasks. Thus, this creates a warm vibe for international volunteer opportunities.
What Is Life Like for Interns in Cusco Beyond Work?
Cusco is a lively city, which has history, culture, and a trip:
- Visit more busy plazas, Inca ruins, and old churches.
- Enjoy Peruvian food—Kayla’s favorite was lomo saltado
- Sit and relax in local cafes or walk around market place.
- Take a close day trip to the Inca ruins, Machu Picchu, and Rainbow Mountain
- Link with expats, guests, and other interns during social events.
