Nev / Canada 
Do you belong to a group or community?
Hi. My name is Nev, and I'm from Canada. My question for today is do you belong to a group or community?
And unfortunately I don't, not because I have anything about being a part of a group or community. It's only because I've been traveling a lot over the past six years now. So I haven't really had the chance to be somewhere long enough to become a member of a group or part of a community.
If I were to become one, and hopefully I will in the future, I would like to join communities that help people around us, communities that offer services for let's say homeless people or people who are struggling when it comes to their mental health or things like that. So I think it would be great to give something back to the community and to be a part of something useful.
What do you think? Would you consider being a part of a community? Unless you already are.
