sounds like my step-brother. after he graduated with his masters he joined the peace corps. he lives in honduras and el salvador for about 2.5 years for around $80 a month with no floor in his house, no stove, no fridge - nothing. but he did it to help the kids in the area, give them food, teach them etc.... he is now camping in alaska. talk about a free spirit lol

my brother also came up with the idea of fasting on thanksgiving and volunteering at a soup kitchen. to try and feel what these homless people feel everyday.

my boyfriend also goes with me sometimes to volunteer at the humane society. he used to hate cats. now he says he cant hold them because he will want to take them home lol
