Days in Korea: Somewhere close to 365
Days left in Korea: 2
First met Ashley: Through email last December, when she wrote to me from SLP, the private school where I now work
What she said: “Most days I love the kids and teaching. . . it’s very clean, lunches are good, and the kids are amazing.”
Tagline on their blog Karma Travels: Love to Help. Love to Travel
In 2009, they volunteered in Peru for: Earthquake relief and children with special needs
And in Costa Rica at: a Wildlife Refuge relocating eggs for Leatherback Sea Turtles
Currently fundraising for: A new well in Butakoola Village, Uganda
Following a volunteer stint in Uganda, they plan to traverse: Kenya, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, Nepal, and India
Future dream is: Creating their own non-profit organization for social justice
Back home, they can’t wait to: Eat sweet veggie goodness at their favourite Chicago restaurants
With: Their friends and family
And: Hug their dogs
I am moved by: Their energy, ambition, and generosity
And will miss: Their laughter, insight and thoughtfulness
As well as: Ashley’s crazy-good banana bread
And: Our late-night walks along the stream
I wish them: Experiences that continue to inspire their days
And hope: We will see each other again, in another part of the world…
