Zahara Heckscher is one of the authors of "How To Live Your Dream By Volunteering Overseas," and she got into this by spending a year volunteering in Zambia. We asked her if she could recommend some places to get started if you're interested in overseas volunteerism. Are there alternatives to the Peace Corps? And how do you readjust to America after spending time abroad volunteering?
