Hi there, this has been a concept for me for a while. It started when I was traveling in India. I was aware that not only was I trying to be a "good American" with the Indian people that I was meeting but I was also writing long emails to folks at home trying to give them a glimpse and feel for what it was like to be in India.
Since I do not really trust the governments diplomatic encounters with most 'people' in the world, I started thinking that we need to be our own ambassadors. Many of us, who are privileged enough to travel almost have a responsibility to create the best relationships all around the world that we can.
I invite you to share your thoughts, while you are travelling, once you return, or even before you go.
