TRAVEL Makes Us BETTER Americans

I was watching a presentation about our Rotary Books for the World project that has now shipped over 1 million POUNDS of books to countries like Africa where students don't have books and I was reminded WHY Americans SHOULD travel the world more.

Only by travel do you see our own place more clearly. You can see how many things we take for granted. It makes you realize that people are so appreciative of the chance to learn - while many of our young people don't think its important.

And it makes you realize how much ALIKE all humans are once you get to know them...
