Upcoming Travel Plans

One of my lifelong loves has always been traveling. Well, I lie. I hated the thought of traveling when I was growing up. I had no desire to see the world. However, I took a trip to Thailand when I was 19 and it was literally the best experience of my life. I will never forget it and yearn to explore and experience the carefreeness and adventure once more.

Unfortunately, I don't have a lot of money right now. I'm a broke college student with credit cards and loans to pay back. However, I do have some financial aid saved up and I am working part time. Traveling is something I just have to do to live my life to the fullest. Therefore, I'm trying to work my way through the 50 states while I have a limited budget. Hopefully, in a couple of years I can expand to international travel when I have some money saved up.

With that being said, I leave to Philly next weekend and am SO excited. I have to write a separate post about things I want to see and do during my short stay there.

I am also one lucky girl because my dad offered me a 5 day trip to anywhere in the United States...covered by him. I wanted to go to a big city like Boston or Chicago, but then my classmate told me the weather was -7 when she was there last December. I'm from San Diego, and I freak out in 55 degree weather. The colder cities will have to wait until spring/summer for me...

Therefore, I decided to visit Nashville. It's not going to be too cold there, and it definitely has a lot of history/sights to see. I'm so excite that I will be visiting two states in the next two months...I'm finally starting to live my dream and see the world!
