Namaste! My name is Claudia Reid and this summer I was given the life-changing opportunity to travel to Nepal with National Geographic Student Expeditions. I spent 18 days in this beautiful country learning the history of Kathmandu, serving in a children’s home in the Talamarang village and seeing firsthand the damages from the 2015 earthquake. I even had the chance to ride an elephant through the jungle in Chitwan! Through it all, I was given an incredible new perspective on a country 8,000 miles away from my own, and a newfound respect and admiration for its people.

I had the privilege of being one of five judges for the HPE Living Progress Challenge, a program that issued a challenge – “Millions of people who can’t access the power of technology are being left behind, excluded from a world of opportunity. What software applications and digital services would you create to improve people’s lives?” This program made me proud to be an HPE employee and I expected to be impressed. I didn’t expect to cry.
