  1. I have travelled to many places throughout my life, and I cherish each journey in its own way. I have been to Hawaii and Puerto Rico for tropical family vacations, and I have spent time in Costa Rica for mission work. In addition to exotic destinations, I have travelled to almost every state in the United States. I enjoy spending time on the East coast, near Washington D.C. for many reasons, especially because many of my family members live in the area and I enjoy the scenery. I have many places that I still desire to travel, and I look forward to the memories I will make in the future.

    1. Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and Washington D.C. are all on my bucket list of places to visit. I been to Indiana, Kentucky, Missouri, Georgia, and Mexico on mission trips. I enjoyed every one of those trips. (Even if i was stuck in a van for 12 hours)

  2. Traveling is my favorite! I am now a mother of three so I do not get to go as much as I used to! It is so expensive to buy 5 plane tickets! These days my favorite family destination is Disney World! We have been the past three years in a row, but this year my husband has put the kibosh on that! :( He said that we can go back again but just please give him a break this year. We look forward to taking another cruise for our anniversary next year. We cruised to Mexico on our honeymoon 8 years ago. We also are planning a NYC trip. I have been but my husband has not. It is a magical place to be at Christmas time!

    1. I bet NYC is "magical" during the Christmas season. I have never been to NYC, but my sister went during the middle of December and she had a blast. I have also never been to Disney World or Land. My wife has gone several times. I have always been more into historical sites. I enjoy walking around an old fort, battlefield, or builds and just wondering what it was like to be their when it was built or the battle was being fought. I definitely understand not being able to travel much. I am the fourth of five siblings. We did not do a lot of traveling growing up which is why I think I like doing it so much now.

  3. I agree that traveling is awesome. I have been blessed to go many places. I've been the furthest west you can drive on a federal highway in North America, been to Toronto, Canada and Tulum, Mexico in the same summer, and many towns and cities in between. You could almost say it is a hobby. My brothers and I go on a trip every summer. We are already planning for the trip. No destination set yet.

  4. My favorite place that I have traveled to is Walt Disney World and Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida. I went last year during the Mardi Gras holidays with my family. I hadn't been to Walt Disney World since I was 9 years old and I had never been to Universal Studios! There were so many sights to see and I took tons of pictures throughout our vacation! I was like a kid again! I can't want to take my nieces when they are old enough to go!

  5. This past summer I went on a road trip with my best friend and I had fun in every city we stopped in. We drove to New Orleans, Houston, San Antonio, El Paso, Phoenix, Las Vegas, Los Angeles/ Hollywood, San Jose, San Francisco, Reno, Salt Lake City, Albuquerque, Dallas, Jackson, MS, and then came back home! It was such an awesome experience. I seen the most breath-taking views ever! I really loved being in California because the weather was perfect, especially in Los Angeles. We visited Wax Museums in Hollywood and San Francisco and also went as far as we could to the Hollywood sign! In Salt Lake City, we saw the most beautiful views of the Rocky Mountains! Our trip was so full of adventure and I can't wait to see what this upcoming summer has to offer!

  6. I have had the opportunity to travel both domestically and internationally. One of my favorites places is here in the USA and in the Four Corners region of the American Southwest (Arizona, New Mexico, Utah, and Colorado). Later this spring, I will travel to Grand Canyon National Park to help guide a friend's hiking and backpacking trip to the Phantom Ranch.
