My Travel Story

by: Karan Kumar Start Date: Jun 10, 2020 - End Date: Jun 9, 2021
(1) I don't think this trip would have any such affect on my education or my career since I am not doing this for my professional development or something that'd have a weightage on my resume.
(2) I feel as if I want to prove a point by doing this. No one close to me believes that it might be possible for someone to actually walk across Africa all the way to Europe. But I feel as if I not only want to, but that I CAN do this. I want this to push everyone to believe that nothing that seems impossible is actually impossible.
(3) I am passionate about this project because of the importance it has in my life. I don't think that I would be able to fund my trip otherwise but I hope this attempt works out. I am also passionate about this because I have always wanted to do something that seems impossible and something that will leave an impact on everyone for long long time. 
(4) I've chosen Africa because it's the most beautiful of all lands to me. The animal life, the people, everything is the most beautiful of its kind. 
(5) This trip is meaningful to me because we all have that feeling within us to want to prove something. To prove a point that would be your purpose. I feel as if I NEED to do this to fulfill a really big purpose of my life. It means everything to me, which is why for as long as I've thought of it, I'm mentally and physically preparing myself to be ready for it, be it stamina, mental power, I have been preparing myself.
