No. 78 (2007): Wanderlust : A Teen's Traveller's Guide
The idea for this issue of YA Hotline came during Susan Maelntosh’s French immersion course at l’Université de Moncton, NB, in summer 2003. For a presentation topic, a classmate who had just graduated from high school asked us for traveling tips and advice. I gave her my suggestions along with others in the class, but the idea stuck with me as I later pursued my own travel research. While there is an enormous amount of print and online travel infomation, there do not seem to be many comprehensive Caanadianbased resources aimed at the specific needs of young adult travelers.
Wanderlust.“ A Travel Guidefor Young Adults is a proper answer to my classmate’s question. I know there are growing numbers of young adults who have the same desire to explore unknown places, but, like her, may not know where to begin to acquire much-
needed infonnation about this large and varied Subject.
My co-authors and I have developed an overview of some resources we’ve found to help young adult travelers make Wise and well-informed decisions about Where, when, or if they want to travel within Canada or abroad. This is not intended to be an exhaustive list; instead, it gives an introduction to the world of overseas travel for work, volunteer experience, or to broaden your perspective of yourself and the World. We hope you find this publication a practical resource for traveling, volunteering and/or working abroad.
