For a long time now I have wanted to travel abroad, but I wanted it to be more than just a 'vacation.' I did my research and found Cross Cultural Solutions, a non-profit volunteer organization. They offer volunteer abroad programs in countries across the world. I chose Cape Town, South Africa. It is absolutely beautiful and there is a lot of need in the community. I don't know my exact volunteer placement yet, but I will definetely be working with children. I am perfectly suited for this with my school social work background. I am so excited for my trip and I know I am going to learn so much! My three week volunteer placement begins May 30, 2009.
