CURRENT MISSION

To use the fortune of being born in a rich country to make an impact in the rest of the world.

ABOUT ME

I'm currently taking a year off after graduating from college to travel to other countries and make a contribution through volunteering. I'm keeping a record of my trip and sharing everything I learn at www.thegapyearproject.com.

PHILOSOPHY

Make a contribution and create some kind of value for the world every day. Appreciate the happiness in the world and do your best to fix the sadness.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was pretty stunned by the Great Pyramids in Egypt. I guess there's a reason they are so famous! That is probably the most jaw-dropping thing I've seen.
