The Modern Gypsies

Compassion is an amazing thing. To see other's care for the less fortunate and seek out their own adventures in life in order to live to the fullest is a rarity in this world, but it doesn't have to be rare. Especially if we have people like The Modern Gypsies to inspire us. Heard of them? It's a trio of friends, Eric Bach, Taylor Filasky, and John Post who decided to take their passion for adventure and try and make a difference around the world. The name, The Modern Gypsies, was chosen as they were first featured on ABC's Expedition Impossible, where they competed against 12 other teams in a race challenge in Morocco and won. This opportunity gave them the chance to utilize their exposure for the greater good. Now the MG's are partnering with Free The Children, an organization dedicated to helping children through education, alternative income, healthcare and water and sanitation in 45 different countries. 

I find their ambition and curiosity for adventure to be incredibly inspiring. I believe these guys are making an impact and leaving a positive mark on this world. Right now, they are posting video's of their latest "Compassionate Adventure." If you have free time, take a look at what these guys are all about and see for yourself. And from Me to You "Thank You Modern Gypsies!"
