My Travel Story

by: Ruby Nguyen Start Date: Jul 21, 2017 - End Date: Aug 24, 2017
Hi everyone,
I'm Ruby Nguyen. Curently, I am working hardly as an officer for more than 4 years which help me can help my family life and raise myself as well. With our efforts, our life become better and more stable. Above of all, I can live and work with more happiness and less financial burden as I expected. Consequently, I decided to quit my current job and apply an international volunteer program. And as a result, I was accepted and start my very first trip in Japan in soon September.
During this program I will join renovating environment and bamboo forest damaged by tsunami in a small village; creating a bamboo playground for children there and participate in many other cultural activities such as pottery learning, local festival supporting... Especially, I graduated from language school so I have a huge passion of languages, so this is obviously an oppotunity to learn a new language - Japanese.
Through this program I expected to able to open my mind, change my attitude and grow up. Moreover, I can have more chance to help others happily with only small things I can give or time I will spend with them.
At this moment from my full and part time jobs, I saved an amount enough to but departure flight ticket and travel care for 3 months. YOUR donations (in ANY amount!) will help me alots to finish this journey succesfully and even start new one earlier in East West Asia after that.
THANK YOU SO SINCERELY for sending me on such a meaningful journey and help me to get a chance that not everyone can receive.
