Lily Slaughter graduated from high school in the picturesque town of Stowe, Vermont. She knew for a while that she wanted to take a gap year. Her wanderlust and desire to do good led her to Bali, where a plan to teach English for a couple months ballooned into a eight-month-long stay with the community. In this episode, she talks to Julia about her experience and how it has changed her world forever.

Lily is now the US Chair for WINS, the foundation arm of Volunteer in Bali that helps send rural Balinese students to school. Consider sponsoring a student by visiting wins.foundation/en/
