Week two of my Trip to Thailand will be heading into Cambodia to see the slights and I’ll be bringing along an old suitcase full of goodies like crayons, coloring books, toys etc to visit a school/orphanage and give them away to those less fortunate than me.. I know there’s alot more than that I could do, but gotta start somewhere right… I really think more people should do this and I’ve made myself a promise that whenever traveling to third world country I’m going to make a consious effort to be mindful and repectful of their culture, help in a way I can, and not be just another ignorant tourist.

How I did it: Traveled there and loved it, a little scary as there doesn't seem to be much law there.. but after a bit of cuture shock I felt alot more comfortable. Angkor Wat was amazing, and it was good to spend money in a cou try far less fortunate that ours... brought toys with me to give out to children. it was a great experience. Read how I did it…
How I did it: Locked myself in a room for a day and just did it! Worth it too, since I got a return back for both years! I even included a "sorry" note to CCRA saying that I really didn't mean to get two years behind.. lol. Read how I did it…
How I did it: After it was on I headed to Asia! Great way to meet other travelers.. even those americans with a Canadian patch on thier bookbags! That's sayin sumthin! Read how I did it…
See all "How I Did It" stories...
On a whim I’ve booked my flight after clearing the time off with work, and am going to travel to Thailand and Cambodia for a whole month, I’ve been doing lots of preparing and getting things together and this will be my first solo travel adventure, I believe this is something I’ve always wanted to do, travel abroad in a country I can’t speak the language, meet new friends and see things in a new light!
Alright, spent most of the day on my ass but think I’ve mastered the floating feather technique of being to scared to try my toe edge and went down the hill like a feather. falling less by the end of the day tho, and toe edge will be my focus for the next trip to the hill.
