We just went and extended the deadline to enroll in a Volunteer Abroad program for 6 or 12 months starting this AUGUST. You can enroll with no price surcharge by May 20 (after that you have a few days, but the price goes up; not all countries, though…).
If I were you — without the kids, the dog, the house, the lawn, the Grandma — I’d jump at the chance to spend 6 or 12 months doing something like teaching in someplace like New Zealand. Bolivia. Uganda. With some org like United Planet.
You get to know some great people; do some great things; and so much more! Learn a language; ride a donkey; eat a goat head; … What are you waiting for?
As always, please get in touch for more info!! longterm@unitedplanet.org
“My trip to Tibet was like a gift from God. It was magical, beautiful, raw, full of journey and discovery. I experienced the people’s love for life, simplicity, and their unjaded curiosities for things beyond their experience and understanding. I experienced true human kindness and everyday I strove to be a better person because of it. I am forever grateful to United Planet for this opportunity and to the Tibet in-country hosts for their love and acceptance.”
