it's up to you. are you more of an animal person or do you like kids better? think about that. i would personally chose teaching just because i think it would be a lot easier. but it's up to you. let you know how it goes when you get back.Im heading to Thailand at the end of the year for volunteer work but i dont now what to do. i'm tossing between conservation involving looking after elephants and monkey or community developoment which involves teaching english to kids....
any suggestion....?
really which part of thailand are you going? most of the elephant camps are usually in the North. If you are in Chiangmai, it will be close to the school I volunteer cause I am thinking about going back there. It will be interested and how long are you planning to stay there? Teaching English to the little kids or taking care of animals both will give you a life time memory. The elephant are very intelligent and they draw more beautiful picture than me.Im heading to Thailand at the end of the year for volunteer work but i dont now what to do. i'm tossing between conservation involving looking after elephants and monkey or community developoment which involves teaching english to kids....

Im not sure yet, buh maybe chiang mai cause like u said theres elephant parks there. one reason i want to work with elephants cause there will be hmong people there, whereas the teaching english to kids is more towards the burmese border.really which part of thailand are you going? most of the elephant camps are usually in the North.
