I have this quote hanging up:

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” – Mark Twain

I remember right before I was taking my first trip to Russia – I was scared out of my mind. I had all these preconceived notions of what it would be like, how unfriendly the people would be, and how dangerous it would be as well.

Now, I can’t wait to see new places. There are so many cultures out there.

My list of places that I want to see: Dubrovnik, Croatia, Greece, Maldives, United Arab Emirates, Netherlands, and Spain.
