If you want to volunteer abroad or go abroad for a full year we suggest that you apply for a one year tourist visa for India (multiple entry) as well as a visa from a neighboring country. Then you can volunteer with Crawl for a 3 month period and then either travel or volunteer away from India for 2 months and return again for a 3 month stay volunteering with Crawl. Neighboring countries such as Bangladish, Nepal, and Sri Lanka are also poor countries that could benefit from volunteers. They are also beautiful countries to visit.
