My thoughts on Meaningful Travel, Family, and Working in the Field from my Interview with GoAbroad.com

A short time ago I was interviewed by GoAbroad.com about my thoughts on meaningful travel and working in the field and you can access the interview here.  I'm a huge fan of GoAbroad.com and the contributions they give to the field but also because of the type of company they are.  I was honored to be asked to answer their questions!
