This is Alex Strand who is based in San Francisco, California. He lost his job at GoPro in December when it shut its entertainment division down.

Unlike a lot of us, he didn’t sit down sulking in the aftermath of job-loss or overburdening himself with looking for another.

Instead, he came up with a rather innovative idea.

As he tells us through a video on his YouTube Channel, Strand “transferred an undisclosed, but modest, sum of money to a fiscally responsible friend” and asked some of his friends to plan a 10-day trip to “anywhere on planet earth” between 3rd and 20th January 2017.

Strand had also laid down certain rules which his friends were required to stick to while planning his trip “to nowhere.”

The rules included several conditions ranging from sending him to a place he hadn’t been to before, to not sending him anywhere “in the continent of United States.”

Well, they obliged and planned a 13-day trip for Strand to India and Nepal.
