I have been wanting to go on a volunteer expedition as long as I can remember. I searched and searched and this opportunity seems like something amazing that I can do and be proud of. I have never been more excited about anything in my life, and I think that this experience will be a big step towards my ultimate life goal which is to be a doctor. I will develop a greater sense of compassion, dedication, hard work, kindess, and love for others. I could definitely use the support of my wonderful friends and family to help me get myself on this adventure. I can't wait to experience the culture, people, and obviously working with the elephants during this journey.
