One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
When I was travelling in Japan with my snowboard on my back totally lost on a train and a Japanese girl who I'd never met invited me to stay with her and family over Christmas and her and I went snowboarding together for 4 days throughout Northern Japan. The generosity of her family was simply incredible inviting me into their home and their culture was truly amazing. The second instance which has left me awestruck also came about in my travels when I was travelling in Laos. It was the Laos people that left me inspired. They have very little to no money, they have very little resources well certainly not the the extent we in the Western world do yet they are amongst the happiest group of people in the world. They are exceptionally friendly and willing to help you with anything, it certainly makes you realise how often you take for granted things which may seem like a privilege like running water and fresh food daily and clean clothes.
Teach, Learn, Share
I find people who have travelled are always very interesting to come across, they have so many stories and seem to have a real energy for life and meeting others.
