ALEX BUDAK I’m a social entrepreneur, travel writer, and picture taker. I’ve been swimming with baby penguins in the Galapagos, visited rat temples in India, survived an overnight train in Moscow, jumped out of a plane strapped to a guy in a leather helmet, penned a thesis on new media and elections, competed in a POGs tournament, discussed social entrepreneurship at the White House, traveled on everything from a ferry to a camel in search of adventure, and, most importantly, attended every home basketball game while a student at UCLA.

travel (including some fun adventures in Ukraine — more on that coming soon) recently, it was great to finally spend a weekend in my new city, Stockholm.  My girlfriend and I made a point to spend the weekend walking and exploring neighborhoods we had never seen before.  We decided we would just get off at a random metro stop and walk towards whatever caught our eye, without any particular destination in mind.  The walk took us past beautiful churches, hipster juice bars, ducks huddled around a bit of water emerging from its ceiling of ice, houseboats, street art and, of course, snow covered buildings.  </p> <p>Here are some photos of what we saw, all taken with my new favorite photo app, <a

Charles Best of Donors Choose</p> <p>For the first episode of the Starting Good Podcast, we talk with Charles Best, the Founder and CEO of Donors Choose. Donors Choose, one of the first websites to popularize the field of crowdfunding, allows public school teachers to create classroom project requests for needed resources and then enables donors to pick the educational projects they want to support. All told, Donors Choose has helped teachers raise over $170 Million.</p> <p>Listen to this episode for Charles’ advice for social entrepreneurs and to hear how his mom’s delicious pear dessert served as a catalyst to launch what would become Donors Choose.</p> <p><a href="http://www.drexfactor.com/sites/default/files/podcasts/StartingGood_-_Interview_with_Charles_Best_of_Donors_Choose.mp3"
