G'Day AUSTRALIA

Visit OZ. Discover the best of Australia - Endless miles of unspoilt beaches, the bush, the outback, tropical rainforest, mountain ranges and vast tracts of desert make Australia a country of contrast. To follow David, Aviva and Florent in their trips around the country and discover the best of Australia, click on http://www.visitoz.net/Australia.

i-to-i is one of the world’s fastest growing adventure travel organizations. It is unique as they specialize in TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) training and volunteer placements overseas. Each year, thousands of i-to-i volunteers are literally building bridges among communities and earning respect from some of the most important care agencies in existence. The examples speak for themselves. When Save the Children approached i-to-i for assistance with their on-going development programmed for Intibucá, one of the poorest regions in Honduras, they supplied volunteers who are now building homes and teaching English to the indigenous Lenca people. Along with Australia they operate in several countries including: Bolivia, China, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Ghana, Honduras, India, Ireland, Korea, Mongolia, Nepal, South Africa, Sri Lanka, and Thailand. For additional information, visit their website at www.i-to-i.com or send them an E-mail.
