I am a bit addicted to traveling!  I lived in Sydney Australia for four years, then traveled alone on a trip around the world.  I had a ticket to 5 continents, a little cash from selling my car, one year to get back to Sydney, 2 bags, 5 cameras and my passport.  I remember the day before I left, instead of being excited, I was so scared.  Scared of being alone and different.

An amazing thing happened on the road, I was completely wrong.  Instead of feeling different, I saw so many similarity between all the people and cultures of the world.  I saw a Massai mother hold her child with a smile, I cheered for the local soccer team with Malaysian children, I sang Hey Jude with an Incan Indian, I talked about boys with Mayan girls and made them blush!  There are these traits that are just inherent all throughout the people of the world.  The love for family, the desire to move to music, laughter, the love for soccer, and so on.  For the first time in my life, I didn’t feel alone at all.  I felt like I was part of a bigger whole, it was beautiful.
