Any programs where I can travel/volunteer?

Question

I'm an 18 year old, fresh out of high school, and before I begin college, I'd like to experience the real world. I want to travel, move, volunteer. I don't know where the begin; my school and home life has been pretty sheltered. Everything is about a "plan."

But I want more than that. I want to experience life and gain a new perspective. Please, any information would be greatly appreciated.
