A short reflection on life and travel.
From guidebook to reality. It was my dream to travel, so I made it a priority — altered my life path so that I could make it happen. Some people look down on me for “counting countries”, but every new place I have visited is a symbol of my commitment to realizing my dream of seeing the world — and that in itself is exhilarating. My travels haven’t always been easy: they have involved many sacrifices, tough choices, hard work, missed opportunities, and a few tears. I took this picture in Myanmar, a place I didn’t even know existed in 2003 when I took my first cross-continental trip to France.
Little did I know that that year-long study abroad in the land of baguettes would rock my existence and change my life forever.

I think wanting to see the world is a positive thing. And dreams are personal– not everyone has the same dream. I think it’s great that you made yours a reality through conscious effort.
Thanks for your support!
I’m so happy you got to realise your dream! It’s amazing how one trip to France can change you for life. Myanmar is on my list too!

You truly are my travel hero. It is so cool to live vicariously thru you. I have done some traveling and continue to so some. But like you traveling the world will always be a part of me and my dream.
