Farming feeds the people in needs
My Travel Story
Je suis fatiguée et j'ai besoin de changer d'air, de relever des défis physiques qui me permettent quand même d'avoir un impact positif sur la vie des gens. Pour prendre soin de moi, j'ai décidé de partir pour un programme humanitaire au Pérou qui consiste à aider des familles d'agriculteurs à maximiser leurs récoltes. Je sais qu'un voyage humanitaire peut être émotionnellement difficile, mais je suis prête à saisir cette occasion pour en apprendre davantage sur l'agriculture, la durabilité environnementale, la culture locale et rencontrer d'autres êtres humains formidables. Qui sait, lorsque j'aurai mon propre potager, je saurai comment m'y prendre aussi d'un point de vue écologique !
J'ai déjà voyagé plusieurs fois en tant qu'accompagnatrice pour une personne tétraplégique dans ses voyages personnels et je me sens prête à me lancer dans l'aventure. Je pars seule pour la première fois, et je suis à la fois excitée et terrifiée. Souhaitez-moi un bon voyage !

I am a young Canadian Nurse. I provide home care for people who do not have the strength to travel to a hospital setting to receive the care they need. I am very privileged because this job allows me to create a caring relationship with these vulnerable people in the intimacy of their homes, with their loved ones and the memories they have to share. I share beautiful experiences with these incredible people that I am lucky enough to care for. Sometimes, the days can be challenging since I accompany some of them throughout the end of their lives.
I need to take the emotional pressure off a little. I need a change of scenery, to take on challenges that are physical and that still allow me to have a positive impact on people's lives. For this reason, I am leaving for a humanitarian program in Peru which consists of lending a hand to farming families to maximize their harvests. I know that a humanitarian trip can be emotionally challenging in its own way, but I am ready to embrace this opportunity to learn about agriculture, environmental sustainability, to learn about the culture of the locals and to meet other beautiful human beings.
I have already traveled a few times as an attendant to accompany a quadriplegic person on their personal journeys and I feel ready to go on an adventure for myself. I am going alone for the first time, I am excited and terrified at the same time. Wish me a good trip!
