Honors Trip 2007
In and around Costa Rica
Where I Want to Go...
This class is about traveling. I am not a very seasoned traveler. Yet, I have a desire to see the world. This desire was sparked this summer when I made my first "out of the country" trip to France. It was an amazing trip that opened my eyes to new things and ideas I had never thought of before. It sparked something in me...
I now am constantly thinking of places I would like to go and see. This class is giving me the opportunity to learn about and visit Costa Rica. I am very excited about this trip. It is a place that I would not have picked out originally to go, but what I have learned so far as stirred up some interest. I know this trip will be a an adventerous journey. I am hoping to push myself to try new things that I normally wouldn't do. (I mean really do you thing prissy ol' me would be hiking and white water rafting? :) ) This semester should be fun and exciting...I know the trip will be too!
SO LET THE JOURNEY BEGIN!
