So far Mortenson seems to be the kind of person that cares about others, an example of this would be how he helped the other hikers at the K12 mountain. He is also very emotional and understands that life in Kophe is much different form the country he came from; California, here in Kophe people live their lives day by day, not knowing whats going to happen tomorrow, children don't have schools to go to. He explains how a teacher gets paid a dollar per day to teach at least a couple of days to many children in this town, they also don't have any supplies that they can use to write notes or do homework on, they use the ground and a stick to write their notes, people with a "higher" economy would use a card board and a stick with mud as ink to write in it. This issue moved Mortenson, his first thoughts are that he wants to create a school for all this kids that follow him everywhere he goes, and provide materials that can make it easier for them to write their notes.
