My Travel Story

Any money given trough this page, will go towards my volunteering trip. I hope I can go in September 2017, but it depends on donations. 
I'm going to Bali to work with sea turtles and teach school kids, trough a program with Kilroy. A lot of the kids in Indonesia have a very basic education, and many of them doesn't even go to school. Instead they sell braclets for 50 cents, and a lot of kids party and do drugs around the age of 10. 
The lack of education has a lot to do with the expenses, but that's not the only reason. The families and kids doesn't always understand the importance of school. And when they live from day to day it's easier to put the kids to work at a young age. Indonesia also have a big problem with garbage, that's a big danger for the creations in the ocean. Especially sea turtles.
For me Indonesia feels like my second home, and I wan't to give something back! That's why I'm planning this trip, and it means a lot to me to be able to help. 
Please help me, by giving a donation.
