The TED story

The first TED Talk I watched was called "Before I die..." like 7 years ago. It was about loss and what can we do to enjoy life as much as we can. They put blackboards on the streets so people could write things they wanted to do before they died. I have always had a bucket list of things I want to do before my time comes and I felt so related to that, it was so inspiring to me, that since then I've loved TED. And now I want to help bringing that inspiration to other people by translation.
