Jason Werner - Go, go, go.
BY JASON WERNER, MESA, USA - I went to the zoo with my son Tristan. As I walked around looking for animals in the hot Arizona sun, I thought, "I might get to see some of these animals in the wild soon!" The thought of living in Africa for a month and working on this project is like a dream. I feel nervous and excited, like a little boy going on his first camping trip. I'm nervous because I want us to be successful. I know we will be, but I feel the pressure just the same. I feel like I'm part of a family, and I'm looking forward to working and living with everyone. I'm a little stressed -- no job, living with my parents, bills, my son's welfare, putting my life on hold for a month and leaving the country. I know it's worth it. This is "The Chance" to change my life and more importantly, the lives of others. To me, this is what life is all about.
