Travel

    Over the past years of my life I have traveled quite a bit. I have been to many States including; Nevada, California, Utah, Oregon, Washington, North and South Carolina, Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana. I have also visited many countries to include; Mexico, South Korea, Germany, France, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Czech, Belgium, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia. I have also lived in a few of these places. It is great experiencing different cultures and trying different foods. Many of my friends have never traveled outside of just Nevada and California. The reasons I believe is procrastination, fear, and being tied down by material things. Many Americans live paycheck to paycheck because we often find ourselves wanting to live beyond are means. We want the newest car and the newest phone, or we want the nicest house and get stuck working so much to have all of it. We are also a country of debt as we use credit cards to get the things we cannot afford.

    In my honest opinion experiences will always triumph over material things. Buying something new may make you feel good at first, but that feeling will fade and soon you will want to fill that void again with another purchase. It is sad to hear when people wait until old age (retirement) to really explore this beautiful world. Some never end up leaving their hometown. Traveling is not a scary thing, get your passport and plan a trip somewhere, you will not regret it. Traveling will open your mind about the world. My favorite thing about traveling is the food. If you have never gone to Mexico to try real tacos, you are missing out. I plan on taking to my family to Japan next. I want to see Super Nintendo World and see all the cool anime and video game stuff they have. I also want to see the beautiful nature they have and eat up all the Japanese cuisine I can. Life is more than just Las Vegas. Go out and explore and have fun.
