It's official...
Travel dates and initial travel have been confirmed - I'm leaving for a research trip around the world.
This is a part of a project I call 'Global Community Knowledge Project'.
(Learn more here: http://globalcommunityknowledgeproject.blogspot.com/)
In short, I'm traveling as a member of WWOOF and HelpX to specific agriculture sites as well as indigenous communities to learn about food from the farm to the fork.
From traditional sustainable agriculture techniques to indigenous recipes and food prep methods. I will work on these farms and agricultural sites in exchange for accommodations and 2 meals per day. I will not earn an income during this trip and will live meagerly for the benefit of experience and research.
Destinations include:
* Brazil, Suriname
* Caribbean: Dominica, Jamaica, St.Vincent, Barbados, Grenada, etc.
* Australia
* South India
* Korea
* Kenya
* Morocco
I will share what I learn, publicly, through my blog and privately. My needs are minimal. I've sold and giving away everything I own (which isn't much) and will be living out of a backpack for the next 2 years. I've purchased a one-way ticket for the first leg of my trip. I'll earn money through odd jobs, cooking, etc as I go. I hope to earn enough to fund inter-continental travel and travel insurance.
Please support me if you can. I'm leaving end of April 2010.
Thank you.
