Two point five four centimetres equals one inch. Every inch is important in this life. Every inch we move and every inch we step forward, something new is felt and something different is seen. Is it a coincidence that my last name is Inch? Perhaps, but I do believe as humans we've got one shot to move as many inches in our lifetimes as possible.

This is something I think of daily. I am constantly moving and constantly looking for new opportunities. When my life is coming to an end I don't want to be the one to say, "I wish I did that" or "I wish I went there". You live once. If you have a wish, get out and live that wish and/or dream. I live by some key principals in life and one of them is to 'act now to avoid regret later'.

I have always dreamed to travel the world and I am currently fulfilling that dream. Everyday I wake up in the bustling city of Seoul. I head to school where the students await me. They sit with anticipation for the next lesson. Their growing minds are filled with information. They are fulfilling something, as am I.

I am fulfilling the ability to educate, help, explore, and most importantly; live accordingly to avoid regret when I grow old.
