Less is More - Backpacking Around The World - The understanding of other cultures and volunteering.
Backpacking around the world allows me to emerge myself into a whole new culture only carrying what is needed for the next day. Volunteering in many areas of the world to help those in need.
Backpacking around the world allows me to emerge myself into a whole new culture only carrying what is needed for the next day. I will be in every continent for more then 3 years exploring the most unknown parts of the world carrying only my one backpack. Backpacking allows me to extend my given budget for an extended stay abroad for many years. I will be providing cultural information, video footage, blog updates, and pictures of the most rural areas of the world. I’ll be taking the road less traveled. Volunteering in many areas of the world will help me get a better understanding of the culture and help those in need. I’d like to inspire people around the world how wonderful our planet can be and perhaps in turn my readers will travel as well. Traveling gives us a better understanding and respect to distant cultures. I will use this prize to accomplish peace through cultural understanding. I want to provide detailed information that it really does not take much to travel around the world. All it takes is a good heart and your dreams will follow.

I love this idea. It is very unique, and will prove to be very fulfilling if you are lucky enough to see it through! I hope you accomplish this and sincerely wish you the best of luck with it. I voted for it. And I hope you will be kind enough to consider my ideas too.

Very cool. Please, check me out too when you've got the time.
This is a great Idea! Check mine out too and if you like it...return the vote! Mine is about exposing a fatal conflict taking place in the Congo.
Good luck!!! <3
@bonbon224 Thanks! China, Nepal, India, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, and many more ;)
@bsasso Thanks! Although I do believe we should be exposing the beauty of Congo. We don't need more bad press, media does this enough and does no good to any country.
@littlemissdolce, @johnfellman Thanks!
Good ideas like yours that are not in the Top 100 are nearly impossible to find. This is unfair as many great ideas are hidden. Those of us in the “Sub-100” should work together to promote the best projects of the Sub-100 so that they can be in the Top 100 and be seen. Please vote for best Sub-100s!
Love it! Great idea & Best of luck - you have my "PIC" - please check out my dream of furthering peaceful coexistence between Jews and Arabs in the Middle East. Thanks!!
I'm voting for you -- please return the favor when you have time and vote for my project on land seizures, political upheaval and daily struggles in Zimbabwe.
You have my vote, If you get the chance, check out my dream "From Australia With Love" and PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE vote for it!
Thanks.

You must not be married! (smile) This sounds like an incredible adventure! I love hiking and I have done much volunteering, but I do not have the daring your dream carries! Best of luck to you! Here's one vote - may you get many. Please take a look at my dream and see if you find it worthy.
