Sean Aiken is traveling anywhere in the world working 52 different jobs in 52 weeks while trying to figure out what to do with his life.
"After finishing college with a business degree, I made a promise to myself that I wouldn’t settle for a career that I am not truly passionate about," Sean explains on his website OneWeekJob.com. "My goal is to gain a better understanding of what I need in a career to be happy and inspire others to go after their passions. Any company or individual anywhere in the world can offer me a job for one week. The job can be absolutely anything, anywhere- garbage collection, actor, working the family farm, a suit and tie corporate position."
Instead of paying Sean for his work, job providers make a donation to the Make Poverty History / ONE Campaign. He sustains his project through the kindness of strangers by staying at people's houses each week, taking the bus, hitch hiking and with the $1000/month provided by NiceJob.ca to help with costs.
Sean spent Week 46 working as a park ranger at Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park and shared his experiences through the following updates posted on his website.
