Sažetak
The theoretical inspiration for this paper has come from anthropological conceptualizations of personal narrative and the relationship between the notions of travel, culture, and reciprocity. I consider this in relation to the construction of cultural meaning by volunteers through the medium of the Internet. The present analysis primarily focuses on how volunteers attempt to create coherent narratives of their own volunteering and make their experience of places and ''cross-cultural links'' (Clifford 1997) meaningful. The organization of themes in this paper reflects the authors concern about a holistic anthropological approach to the research of volunteering.
