First off, Perth Australia.
The beginning of Oct. 2011 I flew to the wonderful land of Oz to take
Foundations of Counseling Ministry school with YWAM.
Lecture phase of this school was 3 months, just up to New Years.
Next Stop, London England &
Phnom Phenh, Cambodia.
London & Cambodia were the two locations we went for our outreach phase of the school.
(note that> because of the nature of ministry we worked with, confidentiality
was priority. I did my best to photograph what I could while still honoring
those I worked with.)
The 3rd section of my trip was a month long traveling the east coast of Australia.
The counseling school had finished March 17th in Perth.
I traveled with two girls in my school for the first two weeks~ explored Surfers Paridise
& Fraser Island. I split off after two weeks and headed to the Central Coast
to visit Family.
(Shout out to> Nic, Kylee, Alex & Millie- love you guys and miss you like craZy!)
4th Stop, Modesto California.
Visiting Bex, a old friend from back home for 10 days.
5th, Nashville Tennessee.
Hello Kellie!
(friend from my first school with ywam back in 2009)
Will be there for 11 days until I take my finial flight to a good 'ol place I like to call Home!
May 8th 2012.
7 months of life changing travel.
Really, I can honestly say that I drew something that changed my life, and the way that I view life, from each and every place that I stopped off at.
I may be going back to a familiar place, but I am all but familiar with it.
>I feel like I've been given glasses to wear, and now that I've put them on
I can see life so much more clear now...
Its Beautiful~
