Most volunteers get around by walking or using public transportation — the specific type of transportation depends on your country, but you’ll typically run into buses, trams, metros, or motorized carts like tuk-tuks or rickshaws. If you don’t live near the school you teach at, you’ll also use public transportation to get to your classes. Some volunteers have chosen to purchase a cheap bicycle for getting around town (instead of walking or riding the bus) but in almost every location, you’ll be walking quite a bit so bringing good walking shoes is a must.
