More About Me & Global studies
Travel
Throughout my life, I have enjoyed traveling. While I haven't been all around the world yet, I have still experienced cultures far different than our's in America. When my family and I went to the Dominican Republic,many years ago, it was my first time experiencing an atmosphere that was very different than what I was used to. Most of our time in the D.R. was spent in a resort so I wasn't able to get a full experience, but while we were outside of the resort I got to see what life in another country was like and it made me want to see more of our world. I am a quarter Scottish, so going to Scotland gave me an opportunity to see and experience the country where my ancestors lived, before they came to America. On this trip I was able indulge into the culture of Scotland by eating their food and seeing their history. I hope to travel to many more countries in my life time and explore their lifestyle and history.
