My Travel Story

Hey everyone,
I have made a courageous decision and have decided to follow my dreams, to travel to America from Australia. I have spent all of 2016, following my desire to work with children and have gained qualifications in, Early Childhood Education and Care - I am about to finish my diploma in December. I have had so much fun working through my course and wanting to do something a little bit different. 

So I have come up with the idea of incorporating my job, with my dream to travel to the big US. I have teamed up 'the Global Work & Travel co' and already put down a deposit to travel over to America to AuPair. 
While in America I will be working with a family, learning about different cultures, exploring different cities and doing courses that benefit me in my career. 
The courses that I have an interest in can be anything from:
  • face painting.
  • sign language.
  • braille training.
  • disability care.
  • or something as simple as learning a new skill for myself to teach children like yoga, dance, soccer, juggling etc.
But before I can go America, I need some financial help. 
I am still putting money towards the fee's and other documents, that I need to obtain before I go (like a visa, national police check etc).

Anything and everything is muchly appreciated.
