The Go Overseas Marketing Team
We have some exciting new initiatives in the works here at Go Overseas!

So a lot of my day is actually spent off Go Overseas and on other websites and blogs. I really enjoy reading about and interacting with fellow travelers who are either teaching, studying, or volunteering abroad (this is actually the best part of my job).
