I'm currently a college freshman in Puerto Rico, where I've lived all my life. I consider myself a tad shy and introverted. Although Spanish is my native tongue , my thoughts are, for the most part, in English. Consequently, I frequently translate my thoughts to Spanish when I need to speak said language.
I enjoy writing whatever my heart desires and whenever my heart desires. Singing is also a large part of my life, consuming a quite a bit of time every day. I don't now myself without singing. In addition, traveling is no stranger to me. I love to go places and enjoy myself in the company of others. What makes the traveling all the more memorable is when it become a journey.
A journey knows no distance. Wherever you've traveled to, be it a foreign country thousands of miles away or the local park in a neighboring city, how you arrived at such place was your journey. A journey is not defined by its distance or destination but rather by the path itself and the subsequent revelations and realizations.
Traveling is often considered a journey a person undergoes in order to arrive at a desired place or location. I've traveled quite a bit here and there. Listed below are 10 locations to which I've travelled to by different means of transportation:
- Aibonito, PR
- Los Angeles, CA
- Anaheim, CA
- Orlando, FL
- Buenos Aires, Argentina
- Santiago, Chile
- Miami, FL
- San Diego, FL
- Barceloneta, PR
- Kissimmee, FL
Amongst the places listed above, Kissimmee, Florida would have to be the most memorable place I've traveled to. To be more specific, my family and I stayed in Give Kids the World Village as part of a wish trip granted to me by the Make-A-Wish Foundation. This trip took place back in August 2011. We took a plane to Orlando, FL and were then greeted by Give Kids the World volunteers. Volunteers in that place are also names Angels. It was a week-long vacation and we visited the Disney World Parks plus the Universal Orlando Resort. The village itself contains many fairy-tale-like qualities that automatically immerse any family that stays there. I could not be more thankful for the wonderful moments and memories I made with my family there. The experience was truly magical, one I never thought I'd go through. The journey to Kissimmee, Florida, both the actual traveling and the reasons behind going there, was definitely one to remember.
