WorldConnect aims to be the one-stop online destination for those passionate about travel. Providing insight, opportunities, and experiences worldwide.

WorldConnect is in its very beginning stages and needs YOUR input and direction. After all it exists to provide YOU with travel inspirations, ideas, cultural awareness, language practice, worldwide contacts, and opportunities for YOU to travel abroad without breaking the bank. Think of WorldConnect as a crowdsourced venture. Together as a passionate group of young travelers we can create exactly w

hat it is we need to continue sharing in what we love, travel. WorldConnect is here to show you that world travel is not just for the rich and famous and truly is something that I believe should be enjoyed and experienced by all. There are a handful of ways to travel abroad on the cheap. To name a few: Au Pairing, Volunteer Opportunities, Work Travel Programs. Each of these coming with their own set of obstacles to maneuver through to make them a reality. Through growing an online community of not only young travelers, but expanding our community to include Host Families, World-Wide organizations, relief efforts, and anything of the like, we are together building an endless database of rewarding travel opportunities. A community dedicated to the enrichment of lives world wide. Doesn't that sound like something you would like to take part in?

*WorldConnect In a Nutshell*

Essentially WorldConnect will be a social network. Something like a Facebook, but catered towards cultural exchange. Users will be able to create in-depth profiles highlighting themselves, their interests, goals, needs, travel plans, and much more. Users can then begin connecting with each other, and build off of one another to achieve their travel related goals. This could range from finding a pen-pal for the sake of language practice, connecting with locals in the city you're visiting, or even full on exchange opportunities such as Au Pairing. Host families, Organizations in need of Volunteers, and others that fall into a similar category would create "Host" profiles. Their profiles would state the type of work they need done, what they are offering in exchange for this work, the duration of time the exchange will last, and what exactly they are looking for in the person they choose to host as well as any specific requirements they might have for them. Users and Hosts would be able to establish relationships through the WorldConnect social platform so that the best possible match can be made giving way to the most positive experience for both sides. In a nutshell, that is the focus of WorldConnect, as of this moment that is. The great thing about this stage of WorldConnect and this promotional page is that you can help shape WorldConnect into the best possible thing it could be for you! Your ideas and feedback are encouraged. Together we can create something amazing, together we will create WorldConnect. Lets do this!

Alright WorldConnect fans where are you all at? This is a message to all of you so don't touch that dial!

A little update:
Lately I have been working on making the official WorldConnect promotional blog and website. The site will double as my personal travel blog as well as an official promotional page and start-off for the future of WorldConnect. I have many travel plans coming up in my life, not to mention I live in one of the most beautiful places on earth! So point being I plan to provide beautiful photography, videography, as well as destination insight through the upcoming website. This is a big deal! And if we want to see WorldConnect come to life here is what we have to do.

The objective:
I need every single one of you to join in. Do you like to travel? WorldConnect needs you. Do you like to meet new people? WorldConnect needs you. Do you like capturing beautiful moments and scenery with your camera? Well let's face it, WorldConnect needs you! If these are all things that you want to do in life then you need WorldConnect. Our shared connections is how WorldConnect will start providing us with the travel opportunities we have been dreaming of. "So how can we make this happen?" you ask, "Is this going to be hard?" It's actually really simple. You probably do it regularly already. All it takes is social networking. Using WorldConnect to share your travel photos and stories. And we can do this all right here on the WorldConnect page.

So I ask one thing from each of you reading this. Post one of your best or most favorite travel photos or stories on the WorldConnect wall and share this post.

That's it. I told you it would be easy. Then we can watch as WorldConnect begins to grow right before our eyes. Plus get to check out beautiful pictures and wonderful stories by friends, new and old, from all around the World.

Questions, comments, and discussion encouraged below. Come on guys let's make connections!

Much Love,
Zach

Every summer in Vail they set up a skatepark on top of the Lionshead parking structure. They have all the ramps unloaded but not set up, made for some awesome creative skating!

Went on a morning hike to Booth Falls in Vail, CO with some friends and our dogs. Springtime winter wonderland.
