Journey to Zihuatanejo by Bill Bradley

After more than 1,000 hours of writing, editing, reediting, and coordinating, I have a story to tell about my time in Zihuatanejo.

Journey to Zihuatanejo: From Visitor to Volunteer is part visitors' guide, letting the reader experience some of the appeal, attractions and a few wrinkles of a charming Pacific Ocean beach town in Southern Mexico. But the larger part of this book is devoted to stories of the poor children and poor schools at the jungle's edge and how the author and volunteers from several countries came to their aid. It is a message about how everyday people can be difference makers wherever they are and a salute to the more than 100 volunteers who made a difference in Zihuatanejo.

What others are saying:

"In serving you are served, and never have I seen that more clearly demonstrated than in Bill's journey into significance by touching the hearts and lives of an entire village one smiling face at a time. Don't just applaud on the sidelines; let his story inspire you to do the same." Terry Paulson, PhD, speaker and author of The Optimism Advantage

"Bill has demonstrated a profound love and care for one of Mexico's most underserved communities, our children. As an English teacher and mentor, living with them, feeding them, playing with them, he has given them hope and helped them develop self-esteem. We need more people like him on both sides of the border" Guillermo Leveson-Gower, CEO, NASOFT USA

"We've all heard of the Ugly American. Well, Bill Bradley is the Beautiful American! He's the kind of guy who gives gringos a good name. Viva Guillermo! Go Bill!" BJ Gallagher, best-selling author including Peacock in the Land of Penguins (Un Pavo Real de los Rienos Pinguinos)

"Thank you so much bill for existing and for all the work you have done for the children of Mexico. It is wonderful to know that there are still great people in the world who love to help others."
Alejandra Carranza Rodriguez, Communications Officer, LORENA OCHOA FUNDACION, Guadalajara, Mexico

Special Note: This book is self published. That means, in terms of my wallet, I paid for it. All proceeds from the sale of these books will go towards paying school costs for Bernabe, Lizbeth and Jose Angle through a scholarship program administered by Niños Adelante, a non-profit children's program in Zihuatanejo that helps poor kids pay for grades 7-12 and sometimes on to college.
