Dreams of a Child

Ever since I could remember, I have loved to travel and I thoroughly enjoyed every single aspect of it. There was absolutely no better feeling than driving to the airport. I enjoyed the smell, the scenery and just the plane old feel of an airport (no pun intended). As a kid, the anticipation of a trip in the near future kept me up at night thinking of all the endless events that would take place. I would pack way too many days in advanced, just so I could feel like my trip was even closer than it was. I even enjoyed the countless times my family and I woke up at 5 am, got in the car and was in San Diego by 10. These types of feelings overwhelmed me with excitement and still do today.

As I have gotten older, I have started to make different bucket lists - some with different friends and some with family. However, the one bucket list that is most significant to me is obviously my own! Please go check out my bucket list and even visit back to it to see what things I have crossed off.

My biggest goal on my bucket list is to go to all 50 states. I have made this my goal for two main reasons.
1. Being a college student, it is much cheaper and more realistic than traveling out of the country.
2. There are so many beautiful sights to see in our own backyard, so why not learn more about my own country than any other country.


To track the progress of my ultimate goal, I created a board that I clearly see where I have gone. So far I have been to California, Arizona, Utah, Nevada, Washington, Wisconsin, Virginia, Washington D.C. and Hawaii. And I can't wait to visit so many more in the future. 

If you have any suggestions of cool places to go, let me know!

P.S. Stay tuned soon for my next adventure. ;)

All the love, Em
