Intro Post

So, what made me, a 20-something teacher from Queensland, Australia, want to change the world? I suppose I've always had it deep inside me, the urge to do something. Then I found Bill Clinton's book Giving for cheap at the local QBD.

Inside the book there were hundreds of ideas, links and stories about how to give back to society. One of these ideas stuck with me for a full day - kiva.org . I ended up making my first loan to support a furniture builder in Lebanon.

But that wasn't enough, there was still a nagging feeling that there was more that could be done. So I bought Michael Norton's 365 Ways to Change the World. And I got myself some blog space. And here I am, chronicling the ways I can change the world.


If you want to join me on this journey, set up your own blog and let me know the link!
