Catching the Travel Bug

This may be the section of this blog that I am most excited about. Traveling has always been something that I have dreamed of being able to do. Recently, I have been very fortunate to really get the opportunity to travel. To me, traveling is an opportunity to dive into a new culture and experience ways of life that you would have never before. It is something that I am extremely passionate about expanding in my life and something I think every human should get the opportunity to experience.

Traveling exposes you to the mysteries of life and the importance of expecting the unexpected. It's safe to say, I have never had a smooth trip before. But that's the fun part. It makes you gain confidence in your abilities as a person and teaches us to be a little more patient and a lot more spontaneous. It is a chance for us to connect with people and places of different backgrounds, sharing culture and tradition.

“Travel isn’t always pretty. It isn’t always comfortable. Sometimes it hurts, it even breaks your heart. But that’s okay. The journey changes you; it should change you. It leaves marks on your memory, on your consciousness, on your heart, and on your body. You take something with you. Hopefully, you leave something good behind.” – Anthony Bourdain
