Syria and Turkey: How you can help

The Syrian and Turkish earthquakes of 2023 has left thousands of families without homes, food, and basic necessities.

As travellers, w're aware of how fortunate we are to be able to explore different parts of the world and experience different cultures. We also know the importance of giving back to the communities that welcome us.

Many people have lost their loved ones and homes, and are in dire need of assistance. As travellers, we can make a difference by donating to organisations that are working tirelessly to help those affected by the earthquake.
