I have been lucky enough to have been able to travel a little bit. When I was 10 or 11 I went to New Orleans, when I was 14 I went to Hawaii and when I was 18 I went to London then Paris. I have also been to Las Vegas, but that’s only a few hours away. I feel very lucky to have been able to travel because I know there are so many people who aren’t able to. My best friend for instance has never been on a plane and the farthest she has been is Arizona.
This summer since I won’t be able to take any classes I am thinking about going to Vancouver with my best friend. It’s not a very long flight so I think it would be great for her first trip. If we can save enough money then we would like to actually drive to Vancouver so we can make some stops along the way. I would love to be able to go from La to San Francisco, San Francisco to Portland, Portland to Seattle and then Seattle to Vancouver. I have never driven more than 2 hours at a time so I don’t know if I would be able to handle all that driving.
I have never been on a road trip before so I am pretty excited. I also here Vancouver is an amazing place to visit so I am really looking forward to going. We were originally planning to go to New York but I figure we can go to Vancouver for double the amount of time for the same price. We haven’t made any solid plans yet so we will see what happens.
I've been to a more places than most people I know, so I know what you mean when you say that it's quite a shame that some others are so unfortunate as to not have had the opportunity to travel abroad. I think that traveling is great as an intermittent break from busy city life, and just good for relaxing for a couple of days, and exploring parts of the world that are actually out there, just waiting for us. You should totally make this trip happen.
