Can Kindness Get You Further than Money?

How far can kindness really get us in life? In 2017, Two brothers set out to travel the world with nothing—no money, no plans, not even clothes—and traded homemade t-shirts for everything they needed! They made their way into some unique and wonderful situations, all the way relying on their blind faith in the kindness of strangers. Here’s what they can show us about the value of a good story and a kind smile!

Want to see how far kindness can get you? When two brothers departed on their first cross-continental trip in 2017, they left everything at home except for a bunch of t-shirts—and I mean everything, including their pants. They went out into our wild world in their birthday suits, trading those t-shirts for food, lodging, and gas as they made their way across the world! Their story begs the question: can kindness get you further than money?
