Anybody know any good short term (1-2 week) volunteer programs in Venezuela or Colombia?
I recently did some work with CCS in Peru (awesome company!!) but they don't offer programs in either of these countries.

Do I have to know Spanish volunteering for Vive Mexico
Do I have to know Spanish volunteering for Vive Mexico?
I'm willing take part in a work camp with kids in Peru with VIVE MEXICO. The official language of the camp is English and Spanish is just "recommended", but since I have to work with kids I was wondering how I'm supposed to deal with them if my knowledge of Spanish is quite little. What would you suggest?

I would suggest that you do some other volunteer work that you are better qualified to do. You are absolutely right. How can you work with kids if you can't even speak their language? I am surprised the organization even permits non-Spanish-speakers to go at all.

how do i text these numbers in Peru
how do i text these numbers in Peru?
Okay, so in peru cell phone numbers begin with either 99, 98, or 97. My phone only sends text messages to 99 numbers for some reason. Does anyone know how to do it for a 98, or 97? For example 99 would be: 01151199(seven digit number) I do the same thing for 98, and 97 and they won't receive them. I would appreciate it if someone told me how the others work pleasee im dying to know, thnks

What youre doing is right, but since there are different phone companies in peru, some will receive international text messages and some wont. Maybe the phones starting with 98 or 97 are from the companies that dont receive those messages. Ask what phone they have (claro, nextel, movistar) and find the pattern.

go to the claro website claro peru obviously from there you can text any phone that can recieve a text message regardless of the cell company

I'm a US citizen. Can I get a tourist visa for Bolivia in a foreign country
I'm a US citizen. Can I get a tourist visa for Bolivia in a foreign country?
I'm taking a trip to South America. I'm starting in Uruguay and eventually working my way to Peru, passing through Bolivia. Bolivia requires a tourist visa. The nearest Bolivian embassy is far from where I live, and I don't have time to go through the online process for the visa. So my question is can I just visit the Bolivian embassy in Buenos Aires for the visa? Thanks

You do not need a Bolivian visa in advance; it can be obtained on arrival to Bolivia or at any Bolivian Embassy. http://www.bolivia-usa.org/consulares/consulares_VISA_english.htm .. http://www.timaticweb.com/cgi-bin/tim_website_client.cgi?SpecData=1&VISA=&HEALTH=&page=both&NA=US&AR=00&DE=BO&VT=US&EM=US&PASSTYPES=PASS&user=SKYWEB&subuser=SKYWEB1 .. You need to have • a visa application form • 1 photo (4x4 cm; 1 9/16" X 1 9/16") not wearing glasses • hotel reservation or letter of invitation • sufficient funds (credit card, cash or bank statement). • fee: US$ 135.00 to be paid in cash
