A Truly Global Education - For Anyone.

YOU don't have to be rich, just determined, to get a great education.
And you probably won't find the directions dumped in your lap. It's going to take some research and asking questions on your own.
While it might seem (to some) a little reckless to send your children off to other countries to get an education, when your teenager's brain is eager to learn and experience new places and cultures *then* is the time to use that to your advantage. And education in other countries can be just as good - and often much cheaper - than education in the United States.
Remember my blog about Maya Frost and her book "The New Global Student"? Well, here is a link to the article I wrote for The Hillsboro Argus newspaper. Follow it to read more about the Frosts and their unconventional and successful search for a better, global education for their girls.
Then check Maya's Web site.
I also have a couple of pictures of the work I'm doing on the DisCo Project suggested by Seth Apter at The Altered Page. Our winter-weathered Disintegration Project is becoming something else - to be unveiled completely August 1. But for now just two little glimpses.

(I've visited a little over half of his participants in the Buried Treasure cooperative project and discovered lots of brilliant new geniuses. I hope to visit a lot of them again soon.)

Busy Week and Weekend

SINCE there's not enough time now, at 10:52 p.m. (which is when I finally got around to actually posting this) I'll just give you last Thursday's news.
I interviewed Maya Frost (and her husband, Tom Frost), at left, for an interview to be published in our local newspaper. You can find Maya here.
She is an evangelist and *huge* promoter of a Global Education and being BOLD with your life and author of the book, "The New Global Student." Her four daughters have traveled and gone to school in many different countries and have all turned out wonderfully and obtained their own educations for a fraction of what it normally costs the average American student. And they've gotten a lot of on-the-job training in the art of becoming their own advocate for having a better, richer life.
If you have children or grandchildren who are going to be facing tomorrow's even higher costs for education, grueling study for the SATs and a lot of jumping through unnecessary hoops, check out Maya's Web site. You will find a lot of food for thought - femminismo
