One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

With the organisation of my father, during a year we ask schools, library, parents... To give us books, cloths, schoolbags, pens...
We organized lot of event, for raise lot of money. When we collected enough money, We left Paris to go to Benin by Car. We crossed lot of counties, met lot of people, distributed lot of pens, books, schoolbags in our way. We stop near school for give them dictionnaries, schoolbooks... It's was a rich experiance. We had days and days without showers, we was slept in cars ( peujeot 404 and Toyota hiace.) It's was crazy but fatanstic! Best experiance in my small life.

Teach, Learn, Share

When I travel, I met different people, cultures, religions, countries, languages... I learn to spend good time with people completly difference than me. I want to teach to everyone that's not because we don't speak the same languages that me can't enjoy time together.
