Everything. I cut down and treat invasive vegetation to allow for native flora and fauna to return, I get to run the riding mower and weed-eater, and I help protect an important archaeological site all at once.
What I wish was different
That I could volunteer every single day until the property is cleared of invasive vegetation.

What I liked
I love working on cars, so it allowed me to help others, while I determined if that was perhaps something I would like to do for the rest of my life.
What I wish was different
I wish I could have done more intense and demanding jobs working for somebody who is severely physically handicapped we could never take on large jobs that required heavy lifting if somebody needed it.
Advice
Don't worry about making money in the beginning, worry about finding a career you will be happy in, and in doing that the money will come to you later.
