One thing that I’m most certainly thankful for is the ability to see all the adventures our planet has to offer. Everywhere is so different, and I’m quite thankful I’ve been able to travel to the most beautiful places our Earth has to offer. It started when I was younger and my parents first took me to Puerto Rico, and I learned about rain forest and tropical animals. Then my family’s obsession began, and we never loved anything more. Every part of the world has a story to tell, you just have to find it. France taught us about rich foods, Canada taught us about diversity, Hawaii taught us about culture, and so on. It’s like the world is a textbook and traveling is a hands-on experience. I’m so thankful for being given the special privilege to travel and see bits and pieces of the world and try and experience different cultures and adventures.
