My Travel Story

Hello my name is Samantha Jones and I am 17 years old. I currently have graduated highschool and am working as a nanny for several families in Canton, Georgia.

I have been given the opportunity to travel to Thailand for three weeks. I am currently registered to travel with International Volunteer HG group and we plan to go in May. While I am there I will be volunteering at a local daycare center in their preschool classes. We will be helping teach English and will have the opportunity to spend time with the local children. I will have the opportunity to immers myself in Thai culture while learning more about their rich history.
I will be living in a local home with other volunteers, we will be taught how to shop the market, work with locals, prepare meals, and have an all around cultural experiance. 

I believe that God has given me this opportunity to travel to Thailand so that I might serve the people and share his love among them. This will be my first overseas voluntary position and I am hoping that this will be a great start to be able to serve in other countries as well. 

While I am there I also hope to be able to learn more about other cultures, become a stronger group leader as we work in groups and maybe find a new passion in life. 

Thank you so much for visiting my page and donating. If you prefer to donate by cash or check please feel free to reach out to me as I know that not all people do online payments.

    I have begun my training this week which is exciting and new for me. I am also spending dedicated time in the world and pray for this trip as it is my first overseas trip. I am hoping that there will be someone in my group that will be traveling from Atlanta as well and we might be able to catch flights together. I will keep you updated as I know more. Thank everyone.
