Julian is not only a funny actor. He recently joined up with World Vision to be a 40 Hour Famine Ambassador. He travelled with World Vision to Uganda to meet some of the refugees from South Sudan who are living there. Check out this video.
For this activity, we had to tell if we would consider doing a 20 or 40-hour famine.

I have actually done a 40-Hour Famine back in 2018, from what I remember it was really fun and I got to meet new people. I did the 40-Hour no Technology because I go on my phone often and it was really hard for me to do. I did this because I really want to help people improve their lives and live healthier. In that time my friends and I talked a lot and I made some origami. I faced a lot of challenges, one of them were being tempted to go on my phone. It was very hard but I succeeded. I raised around $100 dollars. It was very fun.
Hello Lyan,
ReplyDeleteVitaraag here from the Ako Hiko cluster. What an amazing blog post you have created. I specifically like how you told us what you gave up for the 20-40 Hour Famine. I also really like how you told us that you had raised 100$. I have went through many people's blog posts,but non of them have ever participating in the Famine. You are the first person I came across that has actually participated in the Famine. If I was in a famine I would probably give up devices. I think it wouldn't be to hard. Maybe next time you could tell us what you learned. Overall, this is a phenomenal blog post! Keep up the astonishing work!

Hi Vitaraag! Thank you for another lovely comment! When I did it, it was really hard because it felt really boring. Thank you for the comment! Have a great day!
DeleteHi there Lyan,
ReplyDeleteGreat work on completing another Summer Learning Journey activity. There is only one more day left to get those activities done and gain those points so keep blogging and commenting.
The 40 hour famine can be hard as it seems like a long time at the time. I used to do it when I was younger however I would do the one where I couldn't eat any food which I found really hard as I do like eating. Wow, $100 is a lot of money going to those that really need it so well done. Would you do the 40 hour famine again and maybe try giving up something different?
Until next time, happy blogging :)

Hi Emma! It's great to know that you used to do it when you were younger! I would love to do it again, but I don't really know what to give up. Thank you for your lovely comment. Have a great day!
