I dont come from a very rich social economic background, i also got sick at a young age of 25. This has limited my ability to change jobs, its not until recently have i been getting somewhat better but not yet cured. I have some type of stomach condition that of which the doctors have really offered no explanation. I felt depressed, suicidal at times, but things have been slowly getting better. I always wanted to travel, i moved around a lot as a kid so maybe thats where is comes from. I have many friends in asia who i keep in contact with, would be nice if i could go visit them in their home countries. You know if i am lucky enough to recieve enough to cover the cost of a round trip ticket the first thing on my list is to see the history of the philippines, history is one of my favorite topics, second would be the natural beauty of the philippines archipelagos. The reason i feel you should donate to me because my philosophy is that life is meant to be experienced and enjoyed, what better way to experience life by traveling and seeing the world and making new friends from other cultures. Opening out minds to new experiences and getting out our comfort zones, and i promise if i am ever financially secure enough to travel anywhere in the world myself, i will be giving back to the gift you guys have potentially given me by helping someone else with their travel expenses.
