From Belize: 8 Questions Every Group Leader Has Before Their First Trip.
I had the amazing opportunity to visit and speak at a teacher conference in Belize last week. I met with 40+ like-minded educators from all over the US who are showing their students the world!
While I was there, I was inspired to record a podcast that would be a celebration of visiting my 50th country, but also a meaningful podcast that will answer questions that new Group Leaders may have.
I spoke to over 40+ new GL’s and offered my advice and best practices in regards to educational travel. The questions that they asked were so good, I decided to take a whole episode answering their various questions, so YOU TOO can hear what I shared.
Whether you are a NEW Group Leader or an experienced GL who would like to gain a fresh perspective, I encourage you to listen to the whole episode.
Fun fact….while I was recording this episode, I was outside recording at 5:30 AM. If you have never heard the sounds of the jungle wake up, then you are in for a treat! While I was recoding, I had an audience of howler monkeys and a variety of tropical birds “vocalizing their opinions” as I recorded. If I had not known that I was listening to Howler Monkeys, I would have been running as fast as I could to get away from the pre-historic dinosaur sounds! LOL!
In this podcast, I also highlight some of my travel MUST HAVES!
For example, a NON-NEGOTIABLE item for me is the amazing LIFE STRAW WATER BOTTLE (CLICK HERE FOR LINK) This water bottle is a life saver! I would NEVER travel without it! In addition, I ALWAYS let my travelers know about it and HIGHLY recommend it to them.
