Giving Back in India, with Art Refuge
When Mariellen sent us her story about volunteering as an art therapist in Dharamsala we were eager to include her in our Giving Back Series. Although it is a copy of what she has on her site, she wanted us to share the story as it is written from the heart and impossible to write any other way. It is beautiful and we are happy to get word out and to raise more awareness for great projects like Art Refuge.
Giving Back: 12-Weeks of Inspiration
As the time of our travels draws near, we want to reflect on our giving Back Series. The diverse stories that we gatherer over the past couple of months have been inspiring and touching. It is a reminder to us to be more responsible in our travels and to revisit the incredible stories. For those of you who are new to our blog, it gives you the chance to meet some incredible travelers that have given back to thes world while they explore it. We are greatful for everyone’s contributions and we learned a great deal about different ways that one can contribute to the communities that they visit.
Nicaragua A First Time Volunteer Experience
A small town Canadian girl (yes I call myself a girl even at 46) gets a chance to go to a Central American country to build a school not once but twice! How sweet was that. It was even better this second time as I brought my 16 year old son Joey. We were joined by 10 other people making up our team of twelve.
