A week ago today we spent an afternoon in Porto, Portugal. It had rained for five days before we arrived and everyone was out to bask in the beautiful weather.

What makes Mauritius, a group of 16 islands off the coast of Madagascar, so heavenly? We love it for its abundance of five-star resorts, the safety and exclusivity of the local and visiting communities and all there is to discover if you are fortunate enough to journey here. You will not only find pristine beaches with sapphire waters, but hiking in the forested, mountainous interior, world-class snorkeling & diving, gorgeous botanical gardens, a thriving local culinary scene and quiet fishing villages for those seeking to connect with the Mauritius locals who call this paradise home.

In the Indian Ocean, east of Madagascar, lies Reunion Island, one of the most unusual island paradises in the world. An undiscovered secret, officially part of France, Reunion is home to Piton de la Fournaise (aka The Sacred Furnace), one of the most active volcanoes on the globe (it just started its first eruption of 2021 on Friday!), with walking trails for the hardiest adventurers and “potholing” guides to safely let you access its underground lava tunnels. Reunion also boasts a just-completed engineering marvel: a six-lane coastal route that rises out of the sea, providing safe travel around the island away from rock falls & landslides. Despite its natural beauty, Reunion is not overrun with resorts, making it the perfect escape for discerning travelers. Hiking the unearthly volcanic landscape, relaxing at the island’s pristine beaches & sampling its Creole cuisine are just a few of the experiences we love introducing our clients to in Reunion Island.

For over 25 years working as a travel designer, David Lloyd has connected clients with philanthropic organizations worldwide, allowing travelers to make significant contributions to under-served charities they are passionate about helping in the places they love. Global Health Ministries is very close to David’s heart. GHM works in 13 resource-poor nations, including Madagascar, where David spent his formative years. GHM’s mission is to strengthen health systems through access to medical equipment and supplies, support for community-based primary health care programs, and expert administrative and leadership consulting.

One critical project in Madagascar is the Health & Water Sustainable Health Development, which works to improve access to water in this historically drought-stricken land. GHM not only provides immediate lifesaving supplies & medical care, but also works to implement sustainable long-term solutions, such as community-based organizing for deep wells, with training and drip irrigation, to empower local farmers to grow up to 3 crops a year where today there are none. GHM is not only working to combat drought, but its cascade of negative consequences, like widespread child malnutrition. GHM works at the village-level, utilizing existing Community Health Nurses to train others in Community-Based Primary Health Care methods, creating a network of Community Health Workers to bring health education to more people in Madagascar.
