The Road to the Refugees

This blog captures my trip in 2012 (solo) to Turkey to go look for Syrian Refugees and offer them aid. It also captures my second humanitarian trip in November 2013 to open a school and start an art therapy program in Tripoli, Dier Ammar, Lebanon.

It will now capture my 2017 GREECE trip to help refugees.

SO MUCH TO WRITE ITS OVERWHELMING

As I sit here catching up on days and days worth of stories, Im overwhelmed. I think Im not going to leave the place Im staying at so that I don't collect one more story.
I can't keep up.

Im working on it. Just know that... and when I do have them posted, there will be lots and lots to read. Im coming home early, just so you all know. The reason is because I need to do a lot for these people and raise more money, make more art, etc. (While I still have time off from work). I was going to use some of my time in Turkey to see some of the nicer areas in Turkey but the funny thing is Tourism seems dumb to me now that Ive seen what I've seen. It can't possibly bring me true joy like changing people's lives can.
