I would like to take a gap year after high school, before go to college in order to discover the world, others cultures and above all, help people in need to be confronted with reality.

I’d like to go to Ethiopia to fetch water or build a well and then, purify water from the well, so Ethiopians could have drinkable water because clean water is scarce over there.

We could bring food too and teach people what kind of food is better than the other.

But our job wouldn’t be only help them, we would have to show them how they can build a well, purify water, and where they can find food, or how to grow vegetables, because they have to pull themselves together to pull through.

On the other hand, it’s not only about help them to find rations, I’d like help them to have an education building schools and training teachers so children might have a better life than their parents.

I wouldn’t do this to earn money or get admiration from my family and friends but because I like to feel useful, and see people thankful and happy because of me.

An experience like that helps build relationships with people you work with and those for whom you work.

It would bring me a lot of knowledge because I think people from developing countries can make us discover a lot of things that we can’t even imagine in developed countries.

Moreover it’s a good way to learn a new language and it’s a good thing to put on your CV because that shows that you’re open-minded and that you can work in a team.
