Traveling. Exploring. Adventure.
Ever since I could remember, I have always had a hunger for adventure and traveling. I knew I wanted to see as much of the world as possible before I kicked the bucket. I am glad to say that craving for adventure hasn't left me as I have grown up. I still have managed to squeeze in little travels and trips each year, and for that, I am very thankful.
I know there are several people out there still who may have never left their home state. My parents rarely went on vacations or traveled beyond the border states or even out of the country. And they are perfectly fine with that. But for me, I like to escape out of my bubble from time to time.
This topic kind of sparked in my mind recently from my recent plannings for this summer. I just booked a trip over labor day to visit my good friend who lives in northern California and may also be in the works of planning a roadtrip to see a concert in WI in July. Both trips have got me pretty excited. :) I think that excitement, anticipation for adventure, and just a break from the ordinary routine make traveling such a thrill. Even if the trip isn't very elaborate, I just enjoy them.
To sum up this thought, I just want to say that I have appreciated all my travels I have done each year - even on my low college student income - I've managed to splurge on these trips and I really don't regret spending money on any of them. They were all great life experiences and as a part of this blog I hope to have a travel portion to document my adventures. Now onto my other adventure...work. Got to pay for these travels somehow :-p
