From a very young age I had an idea that when I got older I wanted to travel the world. I was a small child when I held a globe. I put my finger on different destinations and said I would visit them one day. In my childhood I was lucky enough to visit France with my family. I found that exciting because I saw the different architecture and heard the French language. I liked seeing the landscape. In my teenage years I did my best to travel to other countries. I got a paper round at 13 years old and worked in a shop on Saturdays when I was 16 years old. I visited Greece where I experienced hot weather. At the age of 19 years old I went to St Lucia and experienced tropical days in St Lucia. In my mid twenties I went on a safari in Kenya and saw all the amazing wildlife. Why I travel is to see different places, take in the architectural style and meet the people plus the animals. I like to experience different cultures.

I like traveling, and I am so fortunate to have this job in the company which is doing international businesses. That requires me to travel to countries in different parts of the world, and I very much enjoy that. I get to see the unique scenic places in the countries, and also get to learn about the traditions and cultures of the people there. That is really very interesting.

I like to becaue I like to see places I never have. This year I went to Boston. I chose Boston because it is so historical and I ended up having a blast. Atlanta is one of my favorite places too. I hope to one day visit Alaska as well.

Thanks for your response. Well, historical place just like big magnet for some people to get their traveling. In other side, take some landmark pictures and buy some unique souvenirs is important thing when they visited that kind of place. Did you do the same? Bye the way, did you ever travel out of US before?
