DIG DEEPER

For the month of July, I was in Chaing Mai, Thailand working in a program called Cultural Canvas Thailand. I designed lesson plans and a few times a week we would go to different orphanages, schools, or homes doing art projects with the wonderful Thai people. Every week we would go to Hope Home which provided a home for orphans with cerebral palsy. I worked with Boomrat, a 7 year old, and throughout the month with him I realized that this is exactly what I want to be doing with my life. I'm going to travel and give the opportunity to create to children who don't normally have that experience.
