Hello, My name is Bodhi and I am 15 years old.

I have wanted to go to Japan my whole life, and I finally have an opportunity! My history teacher is hosting an educational trip to Japan this summer, and it's a dream come true! I havent really traveled much, but for years, the one place I've desperately wanted to go to is Japan.

We'll be traveling to multiple cities, with our days packed full of unique experiences and activities, such as calligraphy and cooking. We will be traveling by bullet train and bus to important cultural spots including temples, museums, and even a volcano where you can dip an egg in it's water and it'll turn black!

Japanese culture has been a big influence on who I am, from video games, to music, to art, it's all come together to shape me into the person I am today.

I am so excited to go on this trip, and am grateful for donations of any size!

Please watch the video I included, where I go into further detail about the personal importance of this trip, and my experiences.

Thank you so much!

-Bodhi
