Jason presents a unique perspective about the potential logistical hurdles of both domestic and international travel, simultaneously creating a dynamic, engaging, and insightful dialogue with students. This is the perfect event to collaborate with your Multicultural Services or Study Abroad Offices. This talk will empower students looking to travel while in school or those taking a gap year after their degree.

hey I'm jason
I'm the ninja behind the travel hacking. My favorite things include guide books, lifestraws, and backpacks.
Preparation
If you fail to prepare, then you are preparing to fail. This module will focus primarily on how to research and pack for your trips. What books and resources can you trust? Which guidebook is best? Where should the bulk of the weight in your pack be? What should you pack?
The tips in this module are absolutely essential for any trip. The techniques are largely universal and transfer to just about any trip.
Work & Volunteer Opportunities
Some of the most fulfilling travel comes through service or a deep sense of purpose and meaning. Simultaneously, many of these opportunities can lead to decreased costs and potentially lifelong contacts. This module will focus on how to be proactive about work/volunteerism. Jason will discuss how to research opportunities, what to expect, and what opportunities might be most appropriate for the desired length of stay.
