Help Me Achive My Goals in Life!
Donation protected
Hello everyone! My name is Eva Giddings. I'm currently 15, and I'm starting this GoFundMe because I want to live to Argentina for a year as part of a foreign exchange program in 2020.
When I get older, I'd like to spend most of my time traveling, seeing the world and learning new things. I love to explore, and I want to see what other places are like. I've lived in the United States my whole life and only been out of county a couple times, to places not that different from here at that.
Unfortunately, these days I see and hear about so many people who - when they were little - dreamed of being astronauts or who wanted to invent a flying car, but then they just ended up giving up on their dreams. The goals become too big, too distant, they seem too hard to accomplish. There are so many people who end up just working a 9-5 job and simply drifting through life. I refuse to be that person.
My life-plan is to travel and explore, and so I'm not going to wait until I get un-inspired. I want to make my dreams happen, the sooner the better.
I want to go to Argentina first because it seems like quite a different culture. From what I've read, they are a lot more festive and friendly in general than the US. On top of that, the main language is Spanish, and I've been (unsuccessfully) trying to learn to speak Spanish for years.
Unfortunately, things like this require money. The program total is $6000-$9000 (we don't know exactly how much yet), but my parents have generously agreed to match me up to half the money required, so every donation will actually be twice as much as you donated. I've been working hard to make as much as I have, and I would really appreciate a little bit of help!
It would mean so much to me if you decided to donate even just a dollar! To actually reach this goal would be such a huge accomplishment, so I hope you'll consider it.
