One possible version：Volunteer Travel
Dear_Editor，
Volunteer_travel，which_is_familiar_to_foreigners,_has nowadays become more and more popular in China.I’m Li Hua and I love travelling a lot.We young travellers volunteer to work for youth hostels so that we can eat and live there for free.At the same time，we can enjoy the local scenery in our spare time.Travelling voluntarily has some advantages because it can save us a lot of money by providing free accommodations，and makes it possible for us to experience different cultures and broaden our horizons.On the other hand，it also has its disadvantages such as poor living conditions and lacks of a sense of safety in strange places.
I suggest that every student should take an active part in the activity.
Yours，
Li_Hua
