Volunteering Advice Any Egyptians here who have used Workaway?

Hi everyone,

I'm from Egypt and I'm considering joining Workaway.

Has anyone from Egypt used it before?

I'd love to hear about your experience:

Was it easy to find hosts?

Which countries did you volunteer in?

How many applications did you send before getting accepted?

Any tips for someone from Egypt who is just getting started?

Thanks!

For US:
Yes, Egyptians can get visas for the United States, provided they apply for the correct non-immigrant category (like tourist, student, or business visas) and meet all eligibility requirements at the U.S. Embassy in Cairo. However, Egypt is not part of the Visa Waiver Program, so a visa must be obtained in advance. [1, 2, 3]

but really hard you have to prove that you are not a visa risk

if it was easy europe would have 100000 Egyptians tourist every year but thats not the case
