Awesome. I sincerely dig it. We're all a little bit hither and yon... also the name of my art collective @hitheryon :)
I live on The big Island of Hawaii and have met many young people in early to mid twenties that are traveling the world with their back packs. They go to wolfer.com, pick where they want to go, contact the person who has a job opning, buy a one-way plane ticket and gooo..They work for shelter and food and some get paid. Most sleep in tents, some share rooms in homes..etc. They stay until they earn enough money to move on to their next destinations. I have personally sponsored several of these young wanders and oh what a joy they bring to me!! Three of these beautiful souls decided to stay on Island, get full-time jobs and moved into their own places. The all still stay in contact and drop in to visit and give me lots of hugs. No way a digital world could ever replace that personal connection!!

Would love to resteem this but not showing link??
Great idea to sponsor young people who just got started! And of course, nothing can replace the personal connection between people.
No it cannot!!
