NEAR PROSPECT, Ore. -- A former University of Oregon student is taking on the country.
 
Daniel Seddiqui is traveling from state to state with the goal of trying out 50 different jobs in 50 weeks.
 
This week Seddiqui is working for an Eagle Point based logging company. He's worked a different job in a different state from marine biology in Washington, to a rodeo announcer in South Dakota. His idea came after being frustrated with finding a career path, and he now plans to write a book on his experiences.
 
"I'm trying to help out people who are in my position that couldn't find a job, were struggling to find what their passion was, so hopefully my book will showcase these different careers," says Seddiqui.
 
Next, Daniel will head to Nevada and California. His next job will be at a Las Vegas wedding chapel.
