use your mind and not your greed

so for a while now i've been considering going on a volunteer trip this summer coming up, but i'm still not really sure if i want to. it's a lot to take into consideration, mainly i'm worried about how long the trip will be, and i know it sounds extremely selfish, but i don't want to miss more then about one or two weeks of my summer. it's just it's my summer going into senior year, and finally everyone can drive and i can actually really go places with my friends without taking the bus or begging my parents for rides. so this is quite the dilemma i have here. i could also go the summer before university, but that might be too busy of a summer, i'm sure i'd have some time though.

another thing i've taken into consideration is taking a year off before i actually go to university to travel and volunteer in different counties around the world. i think it would really be a great opportunity to really see the world, before i decide what i want to do for the rest of my life.

i've narrowed it down to either Kenya, India or Nicaragua if i'm traveling with free the children. Kenya has always been the one place i've wanted to go in Africa, so i think that would totally be the first place i want to go, but i want to see other parts of the world too! we'll see what the future brings. 

lots of love
