My Travel Story

I have had the pleasure of traveling with VIDA previously and it's such an amazing experience. To be able to interact with locals and help them out is such a gratifying feeling; each and every one that is treated are incredibly grateful -whether it's giving them something as simple as multivitamins or asthma medication. The smiles that fill the room at each moment of the day are priceless and is why I choose to continue to travel with VIDA and volunteer in different Latin American countries. My hope is to raise enough money to travel to Guatemala with VIDA and reach out to more people in impoverished communities who do not have access to the same resources we do, but are more than deserving to have the same basic medical, dental, and veterinary care that we have.
