Home again

#7 So, I realize I went on a tirade last post, but really I am happy to be home. I am still jet-lagged and grumpy, but the weather is nice, I had some good sushi last night, and a full night’s sleep. I should be back in the swing of things by the end of the week.

I think I've boiled down what I was really trying to say in my last post: I simply feel like a citizen of the world after traveling abroad. You see how small and how big our planet really is in one swipe. Had a great time, and I feel like I learned a lot, again. I think it would be a good idea if 2-6 months of travelling abroad was a requirement for all young people, wither right after high school, or during college. I'm sure our country would be a lot different. America has so much potential to do good, but it so rarely uses it. Well, hopefully the things I've learned by travelling I can use to make my own home better.

Anyway, if you haven't gone on a trip to a foreign country, what are you waiting for? Go for it!



Coming in a few months: Africa!
