Unfortunately, I haven't been out of the country too many times, but I am very grateful for the pla
ces that I have been able to travel to during my life.My first major trip that got me really excited about traveling was when I went to Sicily for a school trip. I took a travel writing and photojournalism class while I was there. It was a very exciting and beautiful trip for me, and I don't think that I would have traveled abroad during college if I hadn't gone on this trip.

The next place I got to travel to was Paris, France with my mother for a week. We had a great time exploring the city for a week and found that we travel really well together. We kept a journal while we were there, both taking turns writing about our experiences in it. It was a very memorable trip and I am really excited that we will get to take another trip together.
I then studied abroad for several months in Sydney, Australia during my junior year in college. I think that this trip changed me a lot and I do think its very important for everyone to live in another country for a while if they can. During this trip I did things that I never thought I would do in my life. I learned how to surf, I went skydiving, bungee jumping and even got to snorkel at the Great Barrier Reef. It was truly a once in a lifetime experience.
While I was in Australia, I also got to spend a week in the Southern island in New Zealand. Its a beautiful country that I am so glad I got to see. It was a really wonderful trip.While I was in New Zealand, I was very homesick because it looked so much like Vermont. If you ever get the chance to go to Australia, you do not want to miss New Zealand.
