Youth join these trips for a variety of reasons, from receiving a generous gift from a family member to seeking an opportunity to fundraise.Parents saw their kids going on amazing trips and wanted to go as well, leading to ME to WE develop a family trip offering. These trips are hosted at ME to WE’s 4.5-star lodges in each of their operating countries with a focus on giving people an opportunity to contribute to the local community and cultural immersion in an area. On these trips, family members unplug from their typical day-to-day and are able to connect with each other in new ways. Trips with ME to WE are far from a typical work trip; they are more so a chance for travelers to connect with family and other like-minded people while also allowing them to give back and learn about different communities around the world. To learn more about ME to WE, visit: https://www.metowe.com/For more information about the podcast go to https://www.pleasegoaway.com/ or email info@pleasegoaway.com
