My backpacking trip for 8 months around Europe

Hi, my name is Liam, and I'm raising money for a backpacking journey through Europe. Since I was young, traveling has been a dream of mine, and this journey will allow me to explore that world. During my time in school, I spent roughly a year working at the local grocery store. Now that I have graduated, I am able to work full-time. With my interest in travel and Europe, I came upon a Carleton University program called International and Global Studies and it had choices for a specialization, a specialization of Europe impacting the world was one of them, which I thought was a perfect fit. So being able to go on this trip around Europe will allow me to further boost my awareness and knowledge of the people, ideas, and issues in Europe. Travelling through Europe will help me to be well equipped for the next phase of my schooling career and future employment. If you are still on the fence, I assure you that donating towards my travels will go a long way whether it be from my education, career or the memories that will last a lifetime. And if you're curious of what kind of expenses donations would be put towards, main expenses would be things like a hostel stay, a bus fare, or some much-needed groceries. Any donation is appreciated.
