Lets make some news in Zurich

Hello from the lovely city of Zurich, Switzerland!

After a long hiatus, I am writing again to let you know about my adventures and misadventures here in Zurich.

I am here to attend and once again represent the Philippines at the One Young World summit. The past two days have been really wonderful. It is truly inspiring to meet new people and see friends and familiar faces. But One Young World isnt all about free travel and adding people on Facebook. It means more than that. One Young World aims to engage the leaders of tomorrow in taking steps to effect significant change. It has to be done NOW!!!

And that is something we are trying to do here at One Young World with the help of our counsellors who figure highly in our history.

At the moment, apart from preparing for my speech on Saturday that will highlight what we have done for the past year, I am being filmed by the One Young Newsroom team along with five other ambassadors who have tremendously engaged themselves with various causes.

And just last night we have filmed our very first real time documentary amidst the magnificent Lake Zurich.

It made its debut this morning during the opening ceremony of One Young World.

All in the hopes of inspiring more like-minded young people to act upon the issues the world is facing today.

The summit will be ending in two days but the real work begins after the summit.
