Traveling The World Will Change Your Life

I know that I am not the only one who dreams of traveling the world! I could say that I have been dreaming of traveling since I was a little girl. I want to see new places, eat new cuisine, learn about new cultures, and meet new people. It is amazing to know that this world is so big with so many different kinds of people out there. I know I will travel the world sometime in the future, or I might end up deciding to take a trip next month! Sometimes I wonder if I will travel alone, or with my future love (which would be amazing).

Sharing new experiences with someone you love would be an awesome experience, but doing some travel alone wouldn’t be bad either. It would be the perfect time to think and reconnect with yourself.

Every place in this world has a story, every city holds a myth, every culture has their art work.
I want to walk where Jesus walked (Jerusalem), I want to see the pyramids (Egypt), I want to go kiss someone special in “El Callejon Del Beso” (Guanajuato, Mexico) or go see Aurora Borealis(Alaska, U.S.). I just want to get to know every place. I want to know the stories within its buildings and people

I have been blessed to travel around some places within the U.S. and Mexico. My first plane ride was when I was two years old. I went to Mexico City from Omaha, Nebraska. You can say my family kinda started my dream of traveling. I remember getting on planes every summer and just thinking, I could go anywhere in the world, and to this day I hop on a plane and still have the same thought. Recently, I have been able to afford to travel on my own, and I have learned that the best investment anyone could make is travel time.

I could honestly waste $400 on a brand new hot pink Michael Kors bag (and the excitement of having that bag would be gone within a month) OR I could spend $400 or more on a travel experience and those memories and excitement would last a lifetime. I can for sure guarantee you that my future investments will go into traveling. The best advice I could give you is to travel now that you can, and if you know you have the money. Enjoy life, live to the fullest; make memories that will for sure make you smile every time you look back.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
