Hack Around the World 2

Calling all the APAC Hackers! This hackathon is about supporting cultural diversity and heritage around the world. Take your hacks on a ride across the globe to learn about new cultures and build innovative solutions for them. The hacks can vary from supporting travellers in their journey to creating an app that shares more about the ethnicity and diversity of the place. The possibilities are endless. We can't wait to see what you build this weekend. These events are open to all skill levels, from beginners to the most veteran developers. While we'd love to have you build something on the theme, our themes are only here for inspiration. Please build whatever you'd like and focus on having fun! If you're from the NA/EU region, we'd love for you to join another one of our amazing hackathons which are more time-friendly for your region: [WhiskerHacks](https://organize.mlh.io/participants/events/9004-whiskerhacks) Happy hacking!
