Hi, I'm Xav and I am going on a trip to Nepal next year with my school. We will be exploring the various religious sites of Kathmandu as well as helping to teach children at Shubhakamana Academy. I am very excited to go as it will provide wonderful experiences and develop my character by exposing me to different cultures and ways of life.

A passion of mine is music - specifically English folk music - and so far I have been busking a few times to help raise money for the trip. I am going to challenge myself by learning 10 new tunes on 10 instruments over 10 days (a tune a day, each on a new instrument). Any support you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
