Gap Year
After high school, I scrounged my savings and embarked on a year-long journey eastward.
Some of the more buzzword-y things I did are:
- Biked 1400 miles across Cambodia and Vietnam
- Lived with a circus in Ethiopia
- Got quarantined for yellow fever
- Climbed a 20,000 foot mountain
- Restored an 800 year old olive farm in Portugal
- Taught English to kids in Thailand
- Accidentally herded llamas in Peru (I was trying to volunteer at a school but got duped into farm work!)
