Alibek talking about local government

Alibek spent a year in Florida while his mother was a Fulbright Scholar. He is a university student in Kyrgyzstan majoring in political science and his understanding of US local government shows considerable knowledge. Then....as I was soon to leave....we had a beer!

A 'Wired' Mission

Go anywhere in the world, and we are 'wired' together by advancing technology. But we have yet to figure out how to 'wire' peace. Our mission is to use this technology to leap over vast cultural and geographical divides, linking students and teachers together, to talk with each other, laugh together, collaborate in a project, share pictures of our families, our favorite songs.....to be friends.

For several years, Global Visits was a pioneer using modern communications technology to linking people together from diverse cultures. We called our efforts 'non traditional' student exchanges.

Now, we join the world of 'social networking' with a serious purpose: peace and understanding.
