A born explorer, Joel David Bond has spent over two decades living and working around the world, from farm work in Italian vineyards to jet-setting as a London-based flight attendant.
His recent work in Iraqi Kurdistan built bridges between some of the region’s most elite students and the locally marginalized refugee community through service-learning.
He holds a Master’s in Education from the University of Nottingham, UK. His book, “As Large as Your Spirit: a reverse refugee memoir" achieved fourth-round finalist status in the Best Indie Book Awards of 2023.
His public works, including his Life Chapters serial publication and the Locked-Down Life Lesson video series, can be found online via:
