A few years back, I was walking down the street. In front of the GPO I looked down and found the equivalent of $300 in cash.
I picked up the banknotes and asked around if anyone had lost them. Someone told me to keep them but I felt bad about it because I thought it may be some poor person's money that they had on them to pay their bills.
I proceeded to the police station and handed over the money. The officer looked at me with surprise and told me that nobody ever returns found cash.
I filled out a form and was told to come back in one year to see if anyone had claimed the money. After 1 year I came back and nobody claimed the money and it was given back to me minus a 5% provision for keeping the money safe...
And that was the best deed I have ever done and I even gave part of it to charity..

Honestly, traveling overseas. I love exploring new places, and getting to know different cultures always changes my perspective on life
