Write about your experience abroad!

My name is Rachel Trager and I am a co-founder of Pink Pangea (www.PinkPangea.com), the community for women travelers, which I launched while I was a graduate student in Columbia University's MFA program in writing. 

Pink Pangea's goal is to make travel easier, safer, and more fulfilling for women of all ages, while inspiring others to explore the world. We are looking for adventurous and eloquent students who have traveled abroad and want to document their experiences while discussing issues that are relevant to women everywhere.
 Our writers have included Fulbright scholars, Peace Corps volunteers, study abroad participants, published journalists and authors, and independent travelers. We've heard from many of our writers that observing and reflecting on their travels has helped them more fully process their experiences. I hope you will consider sending out this writing opportunity to your students:
