Eco season package Details:
Soneva Fushi and Soneva Gili by Six Senses are offering the opportunity to give something back. For the next six months, guests are invited to stay at either resort for five nights, without charge and to spend five hours of each day working on local community projects, such as marine conservation, teaching children, planting trees and learning how to turn waste into wealth.
This unique Eco Season voluntourism package includes 5 nights paid, 5 nights free in exchange for 5 hours per day of valuable and motivating work for the first 5 days of a luxurious 10 days stay.
Guests can choose from the following areas of work:
Marine Conservation - divers and snorkelers will be taught how to boost coral reef recovery and to learn more about how to protect the dwindling shark community.
Waste Management - learn how to create home-made compost, charcoal and biochar to encourage locals into self-sufficiency and thereby reduce importation of food that can be grown at home.
Carbon Mitigation - Spend 5 hours planting trees on nearby islands to give Soneva neighbours much needed shade and to mitigate levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
Youth Education - Give local island schools a 30 minute (pre-prepared) talk on waste management and composting, and to talk about Western culture and geography. Guests are invited to share their own relevant expertise in whichever field they specialise.
Boost Local Island Income -Assist local families by learning the skill of making cadjan roofing material to sell and public rubbish bins for raising awareness of waste management. This not only helps create revenue streams for the islands that struggle to find alternative methods, but also to helps to keep their islands in a pristine condition.

義工部份黃胖胖可以選marine conservation，我可以選youth education! 不過$$的部份是個大問題，Soneva Fushi是五星級的飯店(Gili更是貴一倍)，一晚的房價$535美金起，付5晚送5晚，最便宜的機票是馬航含稅$26000左右(新航大概要3萬)，再加上在飯店用餐的金額(都是單點，主菜大概就要30多美金)，兩個人要將近20萬，都可以再去歐洲玩一趟了說~~~而且黃胖胖的特休不夠，請事假扣全薪...我自己從6月到10月大概都閒不下來，能不能請長假也是個問題...
原來想出國(去馬爾地夫)當義工還是荷包要夠深啊，只好打消這個計畫囉!最近黃胖胖在看"趁著年輕去流浪"這本書，真想放下一切一起去流浪啦~~~
