my trip to europe

Ever since I was a little girl I dreamed about traveling overseas. Strange lands, exciting places, and new cultures have always fascinated me. I've always wondered what it would be like to speak another language, to grow up learning different customs, or to live in a completely different way than I do now. This past summer my dream finally came true. I got to travel to England, France, Switzerland, and Germany with Mme. Kelly and …

…many new things, and had so much fun. Going to Europe completely changed the way I looked at the world. I now respect different cultures. I never imagined how different the world outside my own in the U.S. really was. My adventure this summer has left me wondering what the rest of the world is like. There's so much I've never seen. It's a great big world and I can't wait to explore it.
