The travelers are all working to help the monk build structures that will be used for the monk's chiropractic practice. Nikita Proshin

 

  • Nikita Proshin left his home in Russia in January to travel for the entire year.
  • The coronavirus created a major speed bump in his plans, and he has spent the last five months in Thailand.
  • Through a work-exchange program, he's now helping a Buddhist monk build houses.
  • The 25-year-old isn't sure what will happen next, but he's planning to "go with the flow" in an effort to meet his 2020 goal of traveling a year without going home. 

 

Nikita Proshin had one goal at the start of 2020: spend the entire year traveling.
