My Travel Story

by: Flint Fancy Start Date: Feb 3, 2026 - End Date: Aug 2, 2026
Help Oscar from Austin, Texas, seize an incredible opportunity: compete at the 2026 International Geography Championships(often called the World Academic Bee in geography) in Khao Lak, Thailand, July 2026!

This elite, invitation-only event gathers the world's top young geography talents at the  JW Marriott Resort & Spa. Oscar has "earned his spot"through outstanding achievements: consistent gold and silver medals in the Austin and San Antonio Academic Bees at his age level, plus a stellar **third-place finish nationally** in Asian geography at last year's 2025 International Academic Bee!

Homeschooled last year during his early competitions, Oscar now thrives as a student at Alpha/Nova School. Beyond geography, he's a talented chess player and in his sixth year of piano at Studio A in Austin—showing his dedication across disciplines.

This trip will broaden his global perspective, sharpen his skills against international peers, build lifelong confidence, and open doors to future academic scholarships, leadership roles, and careers in geography, international relations, or beyond.

Your support covers registration, travel, and lodging—every dollar helps this bright young achiever represent the USA on the world stage. Donate today and fuel his journey to excellence!
