Spring Break Trips? (56k ok)

[hiddengamer7]

This spring break, I spent a week in Jamaica doing humanitarian work through American Caribbean Experience. I did construction, tutored elementary age kids in math and science, did a LOT of computer work and I also helped in an infirmary (basically a dumping ground for people that nobody wants). This trip opened my eyes in so many ways to what life is like outside of the USA, the extreme poverty, disease and lack of education and discipline. My trip was amazing, and I am planning on going back many more times and I strongly encourage anyone that is even remotely interested in doing anything along the same lines to do it.

Ok, now on to pictures, since thats the only reason you are looking anyways

I have about 700 more of these, but I didn't have time to go through them all, I may put more up later. I hope you enjoyed learning about my spring break, haha.

I've notice poverty in our contry is no where near as severe as those in countrys that are not as economically advance as us so I know these people have it rough I guess this makes you appreciate the life you live

my spring break i went to my hometown, keystone city (san angelo tx, called that cuz everybody is really cheap and buys crappy keystone kegs for parties)

that explains a lot. boring as hell. all i did was smoke hookah and chill at home. it was the opposite of spring break

We were just outside of Port Maria. The trip was amazing, it really opened my eyes to what people outside of my little suburbia go through. Jamaica is the most beautiful place I have ever been to though, absolutely gorgeous.
