I have been given the opportunity for the journey of a lifetime - to volunteer in orphanages of Southeast Asia. While traveling and volunteering in Nepal and Thailand, I hope to contribute significant research to the field of children's human rights. The children of these countries suffer unbearable realities of human rights violations through child labor, bonded slavery, and sexual exploitation. As work for my graduate thesis, I am researching the organizations that exist to return these unfortunate children to their childhood.

new pictures!

I have finally had time and electricity to download pictures! Since I am behind on my blog, several events have passed with these pictures- dancing competition, ground breaking ceremony, Pyuthan, and rice harvesting!
