Last year I was able to spend my whole summer in Northern Virginia, which was only 30 minutes away from the beautiful DC area. During that time on the East coast, I was able take a quick day trip to New York and Delaware, where I was able to explore the cities. I was also given the chance to meet up with my mom in Guangzhou, China. From there, we traveled to both Xian and Beijing. Ever since this little traveling spree, I have become a little obsessed with traveling. I jump at any opportunity to travel, because there is no better way to grow than to explore the world and the opportunity that it has in store for you.
The big trip that I have planned for this year is to Moscow, Russia. I'll be traveling with my sister-in-law and we're going to visit a close family friend who's currently living in Moscow. I'm not going to lie and say that I've always dreamed of going to Russia, in fact, I've never really had a deep desire to visit. But as I've been researching, I've started to realize that Russia is such a historical and beautiful place! I can't wait to walk around Red Square and see Saint Basil's Cathedral and the Kremlin District. Although I've heard the food can be rather bland, I think I'll be able to find something that'll catch my taste. :)
