❑ TRADUÇÃO – TEXTO 1:

A deluxe room at the luxurious Snake River Lodge & Spa, in Jackson, typically goes for $385 a night, but it can be reserved for $192 this fall. The agreement: in order to qualify for the discount, travelers must agree to spend a portion of their vacation moving barbed wire fences from one place to another so local wildlife can walk more freely.

Um quarto de luxo no luxuoso Snake River Lodge & Spa, em Jackson, custa normalmente 385 dólares por noite, mas pode ser reservado por 192 dólares este outono. O acordo: para se qualificarem para o desconto, os viajantes têm de concordar em passar uma parte das suas férias a mover cercas de arame farpado de um sítio para outro, para que a vida selvagem local possa andar mais livremente.

These days, it seems that almost every travel organization — from tour companies to luxury resorts — has a volunteer component, whether it is tracking iguanas on Grand Cayman or distributing food at soup kitchens in Moscow.

Hoje em dia, parece que quase todas as organizações de viagens - desde as empresas de turismo às estâncias de luxo - têm uma componente de voluntariado, quer se trate de seguir iguanas na ilha Grande Caimão ou de distribuir alimentos em cozinhas de sopa em Moscovo.

You can even customize your trip, making it suitable for your interest, while staying at fashionable resorts. Hands Up Holidays combines luxury travel with “a taste of volunteering” through specially programmed volunteer vacations in 26 countries according to your individual skills, ranging from building classrooms while staying in Morocco to helping preserve birds in New Zealand.

Pode até personalizar a sua viagem, tornando-a adequada aos seus interesses, ficando alojado em estâncias de luxo. Hands Up Holidays combina viagens de luxo com "o sabor do voluntariado" através de férias de voluntariado especialmente programadas em 26 países, de acordo com as suas aptidões individuais, que vão desde a construção de salas de aula em Marrocos até à ajuda à preservação de aves na Nova Zelândia.

Play it Forward Adventures combines volunteerism with active outdoor adventure making every vacation a personal, all-encompassing experience.

Volunteer. Build desks for school children in Thailand, read stories to orphans in Kenya, or construct a home for a family in Guatemala. Opportunities to volunteer are endless and the needs around the world are abundant. One person can make a difference.

Explore. Treat yourself to active, outdoor adventures that will leave you feeling invigorated. Mountain bike through corn fields, conquer a volcano, or kayak untapped waters. Wherever our adventures take you, we promise an open air approach.

Connect. Connect with yourself or a loved one when you step away from the comforts of home to experience something new and different. Share special moments with locals and likeminded travelers making memories that will last you a lifetime.

Time to reflect and relax is built in to every tour making each experience as much rejuvenating as it is rewarding.

Play it forward on your next vacation getaway!
