My Travel Story

Hello everyone!

My name is Austin Jennings, and my school, Full Sail University is sponsoring a trip to Japan in December 2017. As a full time college student it is hard for me to find all of the money to afford to go on this once in a lifetime trip. With your help I can have the experience and learn in a country I have always wanted to visit. 

Visiting Japan will be an amazing opportunity for me because I have never traveled out of the country and it's a culture I want to experience in person while also benefiting from business related opportunities. I'm majoring in film production and meeting with businesses in my chosen field from Japan can add a sense of depth to my artistry while also opening doors to possible employment after graduation. It has always been my dream to live in Japan!

On this trip I will be going to four cities in a span of 10 days: Tokyo, Nagoya, Kyoto, and Osake. In each city I will visit shrines, temples, attend lectures, and business meetings.  The school has a great educational itinerary planned and I will also get my own free time to explore each city.

Since this will be a cool experience for me. I want to give back to you if you help me. I will vlog all 10 days on the trip. There will be a vlog summarizing each day and I'll make sure to make some fun separate vlogs as well. This helps build up a portfolio but mainly let you experience this trip with me as well!

Thank you for taking the time to read this description, watching the related videos, and thank you for funding me! 

*If you have any recommendations to help this funding campaign like: recommendations for donating or content for vlogs, etc. please tell me!*.

Thank you again!
