Destination London

We are a little more than twenty four hours away from leaving the country and I am forcing myself to keep my excitement contained. I have dreamed of traveling since I was in high school, living my experiences through friends and my favorite characters in literature. I can not help but be excited to create my own memories. Expanding my cultural knowledge and experiencing architecture outside of the United States are only two of a million reasons I am beyond appreciative to have this opportunity.

I had the chance of going to Germany with another Channel Islands professor last year, but it wasn’t the time for me to have that opportunity. I am truly excited that this is the time for me to travel. It is especially exciting to know how much architecture, culture and history I will be exposed to in the following week. Expanding my knowledge and exposure to more of the world is a dream that I am happy will come true with a guide and several of my peers to experience this with.

My anticipation to get there and explore the city for myself and with my fellow classmates  is making the wait so difficult to be patient. I can truly say that this will be my first but certainly not my last experience of a lifetime. I can’t wait to see what this trip has in store and the learning experiences that London has waiting for me. I am truly happy and excited to see how this trip will help shape my outlook as a future educator and overall person.
