I want to go EVERYWHERE.

If I could transport myself anywhere in the world for the weekend, I'd go to.. Yeah, I don't know. There's a lot of places that I want to go, and a lot of places that I have been that I would love to go back to. So I'll just make this blog kind of long and list them.

1. Japan
I love big cities, but I also love history. I find anything to do with other religions, like temples and things, freakin' sweet and love to visit them. And I also love to shop. Cultures of other places always intrigue me and I'm a huge nerd but that's fine.


2. Africa
Not for like, a vacation, but to actually go somewhere and help people. I'm mad jealous of Tim, who already got to do this. I feel that in general, we don't impact that many people's lives outside of our social circle. I want to be able to impact the lives of others and make the world a better place for them, and I always feel like I take everything for granted when there are people who have so little. Going to Africa would be like my way of giving back and being able to make my time on earth worth while.


3. Mexico
I went there two years ago, but it was only for a day and I wish I could have stayed longer. I didn't get to see any of the ruins or any attraction type things, so that made me really sad. I've always wanted to go and see those crazy pyramids and climb up one. But I did get to go around in a local market place, and meet some cool people. I love being able to go to different countries and actually be able to see how the people live, not just the tourist-y areas.


4. Cuba
I went to Cuba three years ago, and I loved it. I was in the Granada province, and the beach by our resort was black from volcanic ash or something like that, so it was really cool. Also, our resort was close to the biggest mountain range in Cuba, so me and my family went on a Jeep/hiking tour of the mountain, and visited a farm , were we got freshly made coffee (like they just picked the beans, so good) and they made us a meal. After that, we hiked up the rest of the mountain, and we went to a clearing in the area that had a waterfall into this crazy deep river, that we swam in. Then we had some guy come in and tell us the story of Fidel Castro (he did it Cole and Matt style, playing his guitar the whole time) and it was just so beautiful there and I'd love to go back. I also went around and visited some schools, and got to go and talk to the kids. I brought school supplies to give to the kids, and they were so thankful and it made me feel like I made a difference to them. And It would just be sweet to go back.


5. Europe.
I would want to go for longer then a weekend, but whatever. My cousin and I have always talked about going backpacking in Europe once I graduate high school, and just adventuring around, seeing the sights and such. I doubt it'll actually happen, since we're both pov, but we can dream.


6. California

Yeah, not that impressive as a last choice. But I would go there for a weekend and buy myself a 1965 Split Top Volkswagon Van. It's my dream vehicle, don't judge.

This will one day be mine. Jus' sayin.
