Hi Adventure Philanthropists, To all those Dads out there – Happy Father’s Day! Here’s wishing all you hard-working family men the special day (read: rest and relaxation) you deserve! A special shout out to my brother Jeff, the father of four kids that keep him on his toes! Buy the Book > Grab yourself (or maybe the Dad in your life?!) a copy of Adventure Philanthropist: Great Adventures Volunteering Abroad today! Available on Lulu.com and Amazon in print and eBook versions for Kindle, iBook, and Nook. Share the love! And now for the articles this week: New: Leaning In or Bending over Backwards? I’m not alone in disliking Sheryl Sandberg’s book Lean In. But rather than dissing Sandberg, I want to thank her for what I was able to take away from her story – including a good look at my own definition of success. Favorite: Anatomy of Antarctica *Video* During my expedition I so enjoyed the lectures given by the on-board scientists. One thing I learned is that the “continent” of Antarctica is really a series of islands covered in ice. Check this post out for more facts and my first *video* impression of the White Continent: Photo of the Week: Let’s do some Orangutan Yoga! Orangutans are a species of great apes that are native to Indonesia and Malaysia. I snapped this photo during a multiday stay at a rainforest camp in Borneo. During my days in the sweaty jungle, we had amazing orangutan sightings -- truly lucky to see these creatures in their nature habitat! Want more Go Erin Go?
