11 Jan Blog Challenge Responses Round Up #2

We have another great round of blog posts from our Blog Challenge participants today! Here’s what they’ve been working on…

The Prompt

Challenge #2 = Home Share your own “home away from home” or, generally, what the homes are like in your host community.

Along with the prompt, participants also received a number of creative ideas for different ways to approach their response. After a week to work on their responses, we’ve rounded up their published posts in one place for you here.

Highlights

We invite you to check out the Blog Challenge blog post links at the bottom of this post, but first, here are a few interesting highlights from this round of responses:

• Alicia in Lesotho crafted a beautiful post on Life Without Corners, including a Do-It-Yourself Rondeval Guide with pictures
• Trenton in Mongolia shared images of his ger taken by his little host siblings
• Olivia in Madagascar gives a picture tour of her “crib” with great explanations
• Rebecca and Chris in Moldova made a quick, fun video of inviting friends and family to visit their home
• More highlights can be found on the Blog Challenge pinterest board
