Why Global Travel Is Now Trending in Schools
Why Global Travel Is Now Trending in Schools
Travel broadens students’ global outlook, they learn compassion, and understanding.
In the past 10 years, we have inspired our kids to use technology as a means to connect to the world. Global travel is in, because America can no longer remain connected just by sitting in the corner, and waiting for things to happen online. We need our future generations to lead the world by experiencing it. No amount of classroom time, book reading, or browsing online, can ever replace real life travel experiences.
Travel immerses students in real life experiences that dynamically connects them to each other, other cultures, to history, geography, political science, anthropology, and social sciences. Students who seek out adventures beyond their comfort zone, grow exponentially, and become worldly.
Schools are Incorporating Travel as Part of their Curriculum, Whats Next….
Certain schools are now doing international trips every year for educational and volunteer purposes. School districts are short on money, and are not providing subsidies for travel. Parents are left to invest in their kid’s travel education, and need to organize their PTAs to fund travel.
Inspiring Travel Destinations and Ideas for 2015
1) Consider traveling to world events that inspire a variety of interests; Edinburgh’s Fringe Festival, Milan’s World Fair, and Women’s World Cup.
2) Choose a travel company to partner with that specializes in educational and student group travel, here are a few we found online; Bob Rogers Travel, Brightspark, C Q Tours, and Prodigy Student Travel.
3) Enroll parents and teachers who could act both as chaperons and also bring educational value to the tour and students travelling.
All Travel is GOOD Travel
Every time students and teachers can have life experiences; is good. Life is a series of events, memories, and experiences. The future of our nation depends on our students’ ability to interact, participate, and connect with each other in meaningful and intentional ways (learn by experiencing life). Want to make like meaningful? Make your relations to family, friends, and community personal; travel for good and change the world.

3 Reasons to Fund Student-Teacher Travel for Good
3 Reasons to Fund Student-Teacher Travel for Good
1) A book can only tell you how things are, but to see it in person you can truly experience it. Think about how it feels to be in the Coliseum in Rome or stand next to the leaning Tower of Pisa.
2)When you travel with your classmates, and teachers it transforms the relationships forever; you create everlasting memories.
3) Because its FUN. Yes its fun to do something new, creative, and refreshing. Visit a country where everyone speaks English with a funny accent; like Australia, and see kangaroos jumping about. Now that is FUN!
Travel Makes a Difference
No amount of books, or internet sites can ever replace the sights, smells, and sounds of bustling cities like London or Paris. Truth be told, we (Americans) should take every opportunity to instill and invest in our child’s travel education early on. It will transform their life and yours. Number one reason people don’t travel, because it is costly. So, I created a solution to fund travel.
A Social Solution
I transformed my recruiting agency to be a funding solution, a co-op that rewards people who collaborate and enable us to use recruiting for good. Imagine if every year, you had a fund to support your kids and school travel.
