It is always great for us to find Travel Geeks that strive to make a difference in the world, especially young people. Sosaucer Maddie Fuller is spending a year in Thailand for a teaching exchange program that aims to assist the Baan Dada Children’s Home in Western Thailand. Maddie is a strong advocate for the rights of stateless Burmese refugee children in Thailand and has shared her travels throughout Southeast Asia with photos, trips, and videos all over Sosauce.
Maddie aims to “educate 60 of the most wonderful children in the world” from Baan Dada Children’s Home.
“If I can succeed in teaching jungle children, I can do anything (although I kind of believe that already),” says Maddie.
In the video below, Maddie introduces friends and family to her experience at Baan Dada in the hopes of raising awareness, support, and funds for children in need:
Her travel photos are not just fun to look at, they are touching and convey stories of another world as well.
For a 23 year-old girl from Maryland to be engaged in a new culture across the world is something surely to admire. To Maddie, it’s nothing, or Mai Pen Rai as the Thai would say.
Sosauce is proud to be the home of a Travel Geek that shares our belief in cultural enrichment and making global connections through the context of travel. If you are interested in learning more about the work Maddie does, be sure to send her a message on her Sosauce page. We hope she can inspire more young people to lend a hand across the globe.
