50 is the magic number

If you don`t get out of the box you`ve been raised in, you won`t understand how much bigger the world is. - Angelina Jolie

This is probably one of the most outstanding pieces of travel news I have heard in a while. Daniel Seddiqui is planning to hold 50 jobs in 50 American states in 50 weeks.

But why?

Daniel says he's on a mission to explore the diverse careers, environments, and cultures offered in America. A recent graduate from University of Southern California, Daniel openly admits that he was unaware what he was getting himself into.

"I didn't know what kind of career I wanted to take on. I had no clue what Chicago looked like before I moved. Not too many people are risk takers, that's why I want to take everyone along with me provided through my videos, articles, and photos. I cover a broad range of careers that are true American jobs. I want America to see themselves and how much of an impact the environment, career, and culture shape their lifestyle." [source: Living The Map]
