Uncovering Indonesia

My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

Indonesia | Thursday, November 29, 2012 | 5 photos

I'm a 22 year old Swedish guy who have a dream to explore the world and share it to younger people.

As I grew up I was bullied because my views were simply different from others'. Most people were afraid of talking to the refugees at school because they couldn't speak our language.

I, on the other hand was eager to learn more about them, how could they not speak the same language as me, why were their skin color not the same?

Ever since then I have tried different opportunities to learn more about life abroad either through travels, work or studies.

After my studies I started working with accounting but asked myself if this was what I really wanted to do.

So I decided to sell everything I had except a rucksack to travel by bike in Australia and work along the way to meet more people.
This was the best thing I have ever done, people asked me how I could be so foolish to quit my job, sell my car and everything else just to see the other side of the globe.

But how do I share my experiences, I asked myself?
Now I have realised that the easiest way to share memories is through photos.

I believe I can change peoples lives by making them see that we all live in the same world.
