*I was also a travel correspondent for a program called Reach The World. This program connected me with a 5th grade classroom at a school in New York who read my posts as a part of their curriculum to learn more about the world. Although the website ended up having some issues early on, you can see some of the articles that I wrote for them at this link and this link shows the wordpress blog RTW set up after the website issues. I was so glad to be a part of this amazing program!
