Fijian swimmer David Tolu Young will cherish the lifetime experience of representing his country at the World Championship in Fukuoka Japan and at the Youth Commonwealth Games in Trinidad and Tobago.

Young says the challenge was in acclimatizing and adjusting to the time difference but he managed to adapt and focus on what he had to do.

The 18-year-old says he will now take his learnings from his two outings and channel it into his next task which is the Pacific Games at the Solomon Islands.
