First Post

Hello everyone,
It's T-13 days until I leave for my trip to Guatemala with Global Visionaries. Those who know me, know I love to travel! I believe that the most important part of traveling is really experiencing another culture. Sure, it's also beautiful and there are amazing landmarks. That is part of what makes up the culture you are visiting, but there is so much more!

I am on a quest to become a more responsible traveler, both environmentally and culturally. The blogs I intend to post here will detail parts of my travel, but more importantly will reflect on what I'm taking away from the experience. I hope that people will comment on my posts and start discussions that challenge people. Challenges (whether from within or external) are the only way to really grow.

Thank you for reading!
