“Traveling to Cameroon opened my eyes to a completely new culture. Being subjected to such a poverty-stricken village really awakened me to my surroundings and sparked my interest in global politics. There is a difference in sight-seeing and working side by side with the local people, soaking in their culture and appreciating your time with them.”
