One Small Planet Site Menu:

One Small Planet began in 1996 when the co-founder, Courtney Wise, was working as Curriculum Director for Kid's College, an ESL institute located in Seoul, Korea. Together with her now husband and co-founder, Blair Cook, Courtney wanted to provide a resource for others who wanted to learn about working and travelling abroad.

For 6 years while both Courtney and Blair pursued careers in educational software and educational IT Administration respectively, they maintained the One Small Planet website as a hobby to continue to share their love of travel and global studies.

Having left the 9-5 office to be home with their two young sons, Courtney has gotten back in touch with her creative self and is redesigning the One Small Planet website to celebrate arts and crafts of the world. Look for jewelry kits containing unusual and uncommon beads and charms, recycled and nautral beads, tribal and ethnic inspired jewelry art as well as imported jewelry coming soon to the site.

In the spirit of our original website concept, we still have a page devoted to General Information About Going Abroad that we've filled with links and books with information on working, studying, volunteering and traveling abroad. This page is useful for those just beginning their search for information to link to sites with extensive databases of international opportunities.
