Global communications!

My global citizenship starts with communication!
As a fairly experienced traveller, I have learned a few un-written rules when being ouside of my home country.
#1.  Manners. Be polite, you can get very, very lost if you do not communicate well.
#2. Carry a map / guidebook. This can be quite helpful in situations when, the last directions you recieved sent you on [...]

It is also equally important that I broaden my understandings and knowledge.
Over the past fourteen years, I have taught children from many parts of the world. They all want the same thing. They want to [...]

Same same

Global citizenship…hmm.  Running into friends, or friends of friends in the most random places – Christchurch, Barcelona, Goa, or Suva.  Relatives across the continent, and around the world.  Old friends who have moved far and wide.  New friends from far and wide.  A glorious city, Toronto, full of richnesses from the whole world.
To me, global [...]

Global citizenship

I think that global citizenship means contributing to the world in a way that will lead to a better global society for everyone. I feel that people do that in many different ways.
