Photos on a wall are of recent visits to an orphanage(孤兒院) in India.It's a trip Jim Inners first made after looking a more meaningful way to see the world.Through the Austin-based Miracle Foundation,Inners has traveled to India three times as part of a growing trend called voluntourism,which combines foreign travel with charity work.
"You're living.You're not just sending a check to help somebody but you have a little girl,a little boy. You're their life line to a new life." said Inners
Silicon Labs co-founder Nav Sooch recently raised money to build a village for orphans in India and has traveled there several times.He says it's possible to sightsee and serve the needy.
"I think it would be a shame to go to India and not see the Taj Mahal.It's a wonderful place and I think you can have that as well as the real interaction with real people."said Sooch.
"We've had all ages.We've had from 21/2with a family all the way up to an 82-year-old and that's the beauty of these trips."says Barbara Joubert.She plans the 9-day journeys on behalf of the Miracle Foundation.She says it appeals to those who want to give back."So the most basic work or what you're doing there is loving the kids and it's not hard."said Joubert.
