I am currently finishing my plans for the big trip. You can see more info here: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/volunteering-my-way-through-the-caribbean/x/9044477 I would be glad if you could contribute, every amount counts, and share it among friends.

Back to the original topic, the trip is probably going to take place from November or December 2015 onwards. If anyone will be there during this time (I know it is after a year, but still, I prefer to make plans a lot in advance), I would love to meet up.

the sense of entitlement of this generation ('millennials' or whatever) never stops to amaze me. Why on earth would somebody pay for your vacation? Get a job, like everybody else, don;t expect strangers to pay for your fun.

To live in fear is a life half lived.

You obviously didn't read a word of what I wrote :) But I wouldn't expect a panda to understand it :)

I didn´t read your blog/website but have you had a look at this tread?

And I agree with hello_bamboo. Don´t expect others to finance your trip.

i agree with bamboo too. I had a friend post on FB trying to raise money for a charity event and after many people 'liked' her status, but didn't donate, she continue to yell at the people in the thread saying they need to do better. it's crazy. if you wan't me to make a donation for your fundraising goal then ask me personally and not put it out there in some cyber world and expect people to donate. i did end up donating because i really liked the cause and the person never even said thank you lol
