Where to Next? An Aspiring World Traveler's Journey.

Famous love locks in the city of love — Paris. 
Traveling the world is something that appears on many peoples' bucket lists — including my own.

I have been lucky enough to have traveled to a few places within the United States, as well as aboard. In high school I was presented with the opportunity to travel with some of my peers to Spain and France. This trip was something that changed my outlook on travel and has instilled a love for other cultures within me.

When traveling to Europe, I was slightly concerned with my ability to communicate with locals while there. At the time, I had taken a few years of Spanish classes which classified me as barely proficient. Although we would be spending time in France, I spoke no French.

Spain was one of the most special places I have ever been, but my time in France was absolutely life-changing. Simple tasks like ordering food and navigating around a city were no longer effortless.

My short time abroad has influenced my love for travel. I hope to broaden my perspective of the world and meet people from all walks of life. 

Where to next?

  1. Catherine,

    I love traveling, and I really enjoyed your post because I would adore going overseas as my next trip of traveling. I just came back from Denver and I absolutely loved it. It was cool to see your picture of the locks of love in Paris.
