“I love to explore the unknown when I travel. I travel to live. I travel with an open mind, and learn about the people and places I visit.. When I travel, I have great respect for the cultural & natural heritage of the environments and societies that I visit.. I know I have an impact and realise I am always a guest in another country. I want my journeys around the world to be a positive experience for the people that live in the places I visit. On the road I hope to contribute to peace, and international understanding.” |
“Grateful for the opportunity to travel and experience the world and because peace begins with the individual, I affirm my personal responsibility and commitment to:
|
|
“Do it, Be it, Say it, Wear it” |
||
|
||
Travelling to explore the world in all its facets. Travelling to learn about other cultures, people and environments.
Travelling while respecting and celebrating differences and the variety of life. |
