Raising Awareness !

Well we're doing another Geography project :D
This time we're are raising awareness about certain diseases you can get when on holiday. We have to make brochure telling you all about the disease, how you can prevent it, what symptoms you may get and how to treat the disease.
I chose leprosy as I find it very interesting, also there is a very large stigma towards people who have leprosy. They are isolated from the rest of their community and people do not associate with them.
When I did my research I found out that it is wasn't actually proven to be the case.
This is why I want to raise awareness about Leprosy to get rid of all the false beliefs about this disease!

Around the world trip :)

Well TY is really going great! We have a project to go around the world! Sadly it's only a project :(
We have to visit 6 different countries, two developed, two developing, two under-developed. The trip is for a year, we have got €12,000 each. This seems like a lot of money, but realistically it isn't. We have got to pay for EVERYTHING food, flights AND accommodation, it is really hard to do BELIEVE ME. My partner and I are having loads of fun on our around the world trip :) Might even go on the trip in the future ;)
