A Life Changing Odyssey.

                To be honest, the place I would want to go wouldn’t be a physical place. I hadn’t been on a plane until I was 11 years old, and I had to go with my dance team. My family has always taken road trips in cars instead of flying, because there are so many more experiences you can gain from the journey to your destination. The longer the journey, the more experiences you’ll get to have. I’ve always stuck with those ideas, and that’s why I think my “life changing adventure” would be a road trip across the U.S. They call America the “melting pot.” Our country is so diverse, it would be a shame to never be able to see it all. People always hear these clichés about things like life and happiness and success not being a destination, but a journey. No matter how corny it might sound, I’m a firm believer in that sort of thing. Maybe I’d start in D.C. and then head down to New Orleans for some Cajon food, and then experiences the massiveness of the open skies in Texas. To be honest, I don’t think I would plan it out. The unknown makes it all the more beneficial.
