Hello friends and family I'm going on a trip this coming spring to Germany, Austria, and the Czech Republic. But I need all of your help to make this happen. The trip cost $4000 all together, but through some independent fundraising and work on my own I have managed to save $2300 and I need the rest through the help of my friends and family. A lot of people have told me that everyone should leave to a different country at least one time in their life. To truly experience a different culture from your own. This is a chance of a life time, and I would truly appreciate your help. I feel as though if I am to increase my cultural awareness, and expand my horizons, I myself can become a more aware member of society. I want to live in a more peaceful world, and to do that we must defeat the struggles of many. I want to learn the the struggles of people across the world, to help create a better more peaceful one. This will be the first of many trips abroad to gain the knowledge I must know to better peoples lives including my own. With your help I want to make this first experience happen. Thank you for giving me the gift of knowledge and awareness!
