Advice For Young Engineers: Travel And Experience The World - Forbes
As a young man, I wanted to see the world and be inspired by new cultures. So with a full backpack, an open mind and lots of curiosity, I set off across Asia and Europe, leaving behind the familiarity of Kyoto, the very traditional Japanese city I called home. This was the first of many trips overseas.
I remember feeling anxious, but also greatly excited about the adventures that lay before me. Traveling exposed me to new people, places and experiences, and I discovered how different the world is from where I grew up. I saw first-hand the stark contrast between advanced and developing countries, and how poor the infrastructure and environmental conditions were in some places. It made me want to do something to help close the gap between these two worlds.
My motivation and curiosity have helped me understand and adapt to today’s changing world and the rapidly evolving energy sector.
