【UP1】Reflection of Ms. Burtz's presentation

I learned that Ms. Burtz project has many benefits. First, regional revitalization told local people who cannot find attractive points of local. In addition, trail running is not only gathering people from outside, but also it serves as an international education site. I found that Ms. Burtz’s a project has positive impacts on all participants.

What most left an impression was the motive for her interest in social issues. She was shocked to see street children in the Philippines. At the same time, she became interested in social issues. I believe that we can understand the social issues of the region in the truest sense of the word by going to the region, just like she did. Thus, I would like to try working in an overseas NPO.

I was surprised that she has a goal to build a library. She held trail running in order to achieve this goal. She had collected funds and spread the region’s appeal to people who were unfamiliar with there.

She accepted brainstorming and she thought about what the local people wanted. I think that’s the most important thing, so I would like to add brainstorming to our group activity. By thinking outside the box, I think we can steer our project in a good direction. I would like to make a project in which the local people will work together.

My daily life influenced by her presentation. I learned that passion for what I want to do is very important not to waste time. In the future, I want to make a living doing what I love. Thus, I want to figure out what I want to do with my university life. And now the time is right, so I’m going to try various things and expand the possibilities.
