We get asked a lot how people can help us with our journey. So for ease, I thought I would put a blog post together letting you know just how you can help us. We have a myriad of supporters - some just follow our journey, others share our stories, some have pre-purchased our book, others have donated some money along the way. We have hostels and lodges who have opened up their doors for us in exchange for promotion or social media assistance and we have brands who are happy to share a meal or provide a product in exchange for our honest feedback. Here are some of our suggestions for those who would like to see us continue on the journey ahead.

GlobeDrop Donations
From time to time we will ask for donations for various GlobeDrop charities and we would love if you could support us and them. We will shop for the items and hand them directly to the charity in need - no need for a middle man. Meaningful travel is very important to us.  

Volunteering and Housesitting
If you know of any volunteering or housesitting opportunities available during our travels, we would love to hear about them. We are travelling with open minds and seeing where the road takes us.

Donate
Any and all monetary donations are welcome. While we work and volunteer as we travel, sometimes the money doesn't stretch as far as we would like. We seem to have quite a number of wonderful supporters who are living their dreams vicariously through us and we appreciate them all.

We welcome all the support that we get from our friends, corporate sponsors and supporters and know that we couldn't have gotten this far without each and every one of you. We don't know how long our journey will take or what we will encounter along the way so every little bit helps.

Thank you from the bottom of our heart.

Our sponsors and supporters need to understand us, know a little about us and get why we are doing what we are doing in order to want to support our cause.  And no one knows this better than Lainie and Miro from the global education website RaisingMiro.com.  Not only are they personal friends of ours, but both Lainie and Miro know and have experienced firsthand, the fact that education is not limited to the inside of a classroom.

"On their sixth year of travel, 14 countries and many personal changes later, Lainie & Miro continue to slow travel, living an inspired possession-free-lifestyle, volunteering and learning naturally from the world. They are following their interests on the road, as the planet has been transformed into their classroom. Often you will hear Lainie say “we are blessed to be accidental unschoolers” and has become and an advocate for “life learning” at any age. Lainie & Miro describe their greatest accomplishment as the ability to participate in the world without fear." - RaisingMiro.com

Currently in Ecuador, working on Project World School, they are paving the way for home schoolers, world schoolers and unschoolers by creating immersive world learning experiences designed for homeschoolers, unschoolers and democratic learners across the globe.

Thanks for your support!

GlobeDrop.org is a social enterprise that allows travellers to contribute to social welfare establishments and NGOs around the world while travelling. They offer a free web and mobile application that can easily connect travellers to verified social organisations - no middle man required.

They carry the motto, “Travel Meaningfully”, which concisely describes what GlobeDrop.org and our trip from Cusco to Niagara Falls is about. In their own way, they promote responsible travelling by locally buying in-kind donations to help the community livelihood. Using the GlobeDrop application can also create social awareness through immersion when travellers buy goods to be turned to in-kind donations in their chosen local market communities.
