Monique's Plea for Education at Sea
My Travel Story
I have dreamed of studying abroad in a remote and beautiful location, volunteering/helping those in need overseas, and immersing myself into the culture and traditions of another population for a long time. My problem was, I was unable to decide which country I wanted to experience on my journey but when I discovered Semester at Sea my problem was resolved.
The Semester-at-Sea Fall 2017 Voyage is a 106-day semester on a shipboard campus where I will obtain twelve credits as I visit thirteen cities in four continents and connect the courses I take to cultures, and traditions of places I visit.
-Spain,Ghana, South Africa, Mauritius, India, Myanmar, Vietnam, China, Japan, and Hawaii-
Being seleced to participate in this program is a dream come true and the opportunity of a lifetime. Not only will I try my best to embrace every aspect of each of these cultures, I will take part in unique experiences which will help me grow as a person and allow me to make an impact on all those I encounter. I will take part in various homestays across countries, rituals at temples and sanctuaries, and visiting orphanages, local schools, and various non-profit organizations in order to lend a helping hand wherever possible.
I am working hard to earn extra money, and I have received a good amount of scholarships but it is still not enough to cover the full cost of tuition. This, is where you come in! (Hopefully)
I want to make an impact on a global scale, by touching the lives of others one person at a time and with your help this can be possible! So, if you are able to help with any amount, no matter how big or how small it will make a difference and I will greatly appreciate it!
I will make sure to keep you updated on how your money is being used to help make an impact worldwide! (:
If you have any questions feel free to reach out to me!
