Meet Lilyanne, a fashion blogger from Vancouver with an edgy style and a passion for life. Here are some of the highlights as well as a few pictures from her 4 week long journey.

This is a warm-hearted couple from the U.S. who just finished a volunteering tour in Chile. They enjoyed home stays, mining tours, sharing with students, and so much more. We love our volunteers!

“Closing my eyes and listening to these rhythmic, haunting sounds gave me goosebumps. It hit me for the first time that I was thousands of miles and worlds away from everything I knew. I couldn’t wait to start my journey.”

The other day we received a survey from a volunteer that just returned from Tanzania. She spent 3 weeks on an Orphanage and Street Children Quest and had a wonderful time, but her one issue with her United Planet Quest was that she felt she had almost been “over-prepped” in matters of safety…

School is almost out for the summer here in Boston, and for 11 lucky Boston Public School (BPS) high school students, 3 BPS teachers, and one United Planet Group Coordinator, this means much more than sleeping in and building sand castles at the beach. Thanks to a grant from the U.S. State Department Bureau of Cultural and Educational Affairs, these 15 excited travelers will have the opportunity to explore the unique country of Mongolia for three weeks this coming July!
