Hello, my name is Anja. I'm a traveler who writes and a writer who travels. On this little corner of the online universe, I will be recording my journeys. Whether I'm traveling through the back roads of some faraway country or sitting in my Brooklyn apartment on a rainy night – musing, waxing poetic, feeling nostalgic – I'll be sharing my thoughts and impressions. Come back and visit often; I'll do my best to keep it fresh, informative and surprising…

Give back to the world

A couple of days ago, I blogged about Passports with Purpose, a travel blogger-driven fundraiser for Heifer International, a nonprofit organization that seeks to eliminate hunger and poverty around the globe. With an entire community of travel bloggers behind this inspiring initiative, it wasn't enough just to write a few words about it. I decided to participate by contributing a raffle prize.

And here's what I'm providing to a lucky winner who makes a donation: a set of five Lonely Planet titles, providing a mix of inspirational and practical for the traveler. Here they are: The Travel Book, Best in Travel 2009, The Big Trip, Lonely Planet 2009 Wall Calendar, and Travel Journal.

But don't order yet! There are more incredible prizes on the prizes page. Before you make your raffle donations, be sure to check out all the other great stuff you can win. The proceeds go directly to Heifer International.

Once you've selected your prize – or prizes – go to First Giving to make your raffle donation. For each ten dollar donation you make, you'll be entered into the raffle for the prize you've selected. Heads up: Be sure to enter your email address and the prize you want to win in the comments field, or we can't notify you if you win! There's more information on the First Giving page. The founders will pull winners and notify them via email on December 30th.

Good luck for a good cause!
