Why set up a blog?

Short answer:

To document my voluntary, work and travel experiences, whilst keeping connected with family and friends.

Long answer: 

I have slowly been building myself up to volunteering or working abroad for years. After my degrees and working in London but living at home, I have finally saved up enough money and courage to travel and gain work experience. Since I was 16 I have been volunteering and working for charities, mainly in the health and social care sector. However, my Cv is the way I have officially documented the experiences.

As of January 2018, I will be unemployed and seeking valuable global development experiences around the world. My first stop is Rajasthan, India on the 4th January. I will be volunteering as a team leader with the Voluntary Services Oversea and the International Citizen Scheme. Living within a local host family, I’ll be fully emerged into the Hindi culture and community.

Throughout the 3 month placement, I will be blogging about my unique time in India to keep my fans updated. Watch this space             !?
