About this blog

We are two science teachers, a husband and wife team, who have embarked on a 9 month trip around the world! During our travels, we hope to learn about different cultures, diverse people, local wildlife, natural phenomena, and bring that knowledge and energy back to the classroom.

On our way, we plan to volunteer and observe classes in foreingn countries. Thanks for stopping by and reading,

David & Kinga
