I forgot how much coordination and planning it is to prepare for an international trip. However, I am confident that I can do it. I did it on my own for my trip to Senegal. For that trip I was working, taking classes, and had absolutely no experience with travel. So I can do it!
Flights have already gone up by over $200 in a week. I was not sure where I would be flying from so I did not book a ticket and now I will pay for my hesitation. Goodness, I hate that!
I also want to apply for my visa, however, you need to send flight information and two passport pictures with the application. Neither of which I have. I need to step it up! My chore for this week is to figure out my flight so that I can move on to my visa application, and then notify FSD of my plans.
About Me
- Jackie
- After a nonviolent struggle for equal rights in Albany, Georgia, Martin Luther King, Jr. looked back on the previous months of events and realized that the participants in the fight for Civil Rights were focusing on the big picture, trying to change the entire systematic problem. He realized that they needed to shift their focus to the individual events that were making huge strides in the movement. MLK Jr., a man I greatly respect, was right. If we hope for significant change to take place, we must start small. Start grassroots. Focus on the individual. Concentrate on "symbolic objectives" that lead to sustainable changes. My passion for people is grounded in the belief that every human being has the right to live a healthy, productive life. I believe in grassroots sustainable development starting with impacting one individual at a time. This blog is about my effort to start small and make a big difference.
