For years, I've always enjoyed visiting schools to introduce children to people and places around the world. I've been involved with Bridges for several years including a Mentor Workshop with students from South Africa, and delivering in-school training for teachers and students in digital storytelling. Participating in a Bridges workshop is a profound, life-changing experience. Mentors teach digital storytelling; however, its the students that teach US about spirit, open-mindedness, hope and passion.
Prior to and after the 2008 South Africa workshop, I will be on an 8-month volunteer/ humanitarian journey touching Uganda, South Africa, Namibia, Morocco, Lao, Vietnam, China, Myanmar. My photography and travels encompass 60 countries on all 7 continents! I'm intoxicated by the differences of peoples, places and cultures; yet, it is the similarities (common themes such as laughter, play, family) that prove most interesting.
