Samantha Nutt on the Problems of Volunteer Tourism | NowThis     https://youtu.be/C6noWoS6QXw

1. How much money does the industry of voluntourism make every year?

2. How many people volunteer while on vacation every year?

3. When foreigners come to orphanages in Haiti or Cambodia to work with young children, does anyone do a background check on them to make sure they are not dangerous?

4. The orphanages have been accused of keeping conditions deliberately squalid (=very dirty and unpleasant).  Why would they do this?

5.  Young children in orphanages are often hyper-affectionate to the volunteer visitors.  Is this normal?
