I have a dream

I have been interested in different countries and different cultures since I can remember. I always say that you will learn more from visiting a foreign country, than any university class. It’s not to say that I am not proud to be Canadian, I just feel like there is so much more out there for me. One of my dreams since I was about 12 years old, has been to go to Africa. The great thing about being a teacher, is that we are needed everywhere. When I graduate in 3 years, I hope to save some money so that I can go to Africa and volunteer myself. Whether I teach, or just simply help out somebody in need… it is my dream. I love Canada, and I love my friends and family, but I really feel like I need to see the world. As hard as it is to leave, the experience of traveling is well worth it, and as people usually say “once you have the travel bug, you can’t get rid of it”

  1. Hi! I understand you interest and need for travel. I have traveled to many countries in the past few years and I admit, it is hard to stop. If you have an interest in teaching in Africa, you should check out the organization World Teach. Their website is: http://www.worldteach.org/
    They are a fantastic organization to volunteer with. My brother was a volunteer with them in Costa Rica and is now working for their organization in Chile. The best part is that you will get the opportunity to teach! If you are interested in other organizations that offer volunteer work in Africa, check out Canada World Youth as well. Their website is: http://www.cwy-jcm.org/
    Good luck and I hope you are able to achieve your dream!

  2. Thanks so much!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
