My Travel Story

by: Shane Glinton Start Date: Apr 29, 2025 - End Date: Jul 17, 2025
 I’m on a mission to surprise my best friend, Ricardo, with his first-ever trip abroad to Colombia—a late birthday gift he’ll never forget! Ricardo has never traveled outside the country due to financial barriers, but his heart beats for Latin American culture. He’s been learning Spanish and dreaming of visiting Colombia, Cuba, and Panama. I want to make his dream a reality, and I need your help!
Colombia’s vibrant culture, from Medellín’s flower festivals to Cartagena’s historic charm, is the perfect place for Ricardo to immerse himself in the Latin American spirit he loves. This August, we’ll embark on a week-long adventure together, exploring bustling markets, dancing to salsa, and tasting authentic arepas. This trip isn’t just a vacation—it’s a chance for Ricardo to step outside his norm, embrace his passion, and grow through cultural immersion. As his best friend, I’m thrilled to surprise him with plane tickets on his birthday next month, revealing a journey that will change his perspective forever.
We’re raising $3,000 to cover flights, cozy accommodations, and exciting activities like coffee tours and coastal hikes. Every dollar counts: $10 buys a meal, $50 funds a cultural outing, $100 helps with flights. Your support will give Ricardo the adventure of a lifetime, showing him the world is as vibrant as he’s always imagined. Please donate today to make this surprise unforgettable and share this campaign to spread the word. Let’s send Ricardo to Colombia for a birthday he’ll never forget!
