Eat. Pray. Love.

This past weekend, I watched the movie Eat. Pray. Love. with Travis and his momma. I love the essence of this movie--a woman's journey to find herself amongst people who are very different than her. I admit though that I dislike her motives to take the journey. I could not get over that she left her husband just because she didn't want to be married anymore--it was a tad selfish. It worked out for her in the end, though.

Watching the movie fed my adventure bug in a crazy way all over again. I love how she experienced Italy, India, and Bali with local people--seeing the realness of that country.

It got me thinking if I could pick my Eat. Pray. Love. countries, what would they be?

After a lot of pondering, I made my list and I wanted to share it with you:

  • First, I would go to Morocco. I LOVE Moroccan culture. It is such a hub of so many other cultures such as Spain, France, Arab, and Africa.
  • Second, I would go to India (like the movie, I know), but it is such a colorful place. There is really no other culture like it. Ever since 3rd grade, my friend Brit and I decided we wanted to go to India because it sounded cool in history class. That thought has never let only deepened by things like Slumdog Millionaire (I heart that movie!).
  • Last, I would go to Australia. I have no particular reason for the last one other than I enjoy learning about the struggle with the lost generation of aboriginals. I would love to learn more about that first hand, and the wildlife is amazing.

So those are my Eat. Pray. Love countries, 

What are YOURS? :)

I Want to Travel the World

thanks to weheartit

As you may have guessed by the content of this blog, traveling is something that is really important to me. I have been out of the country four times to the same country, El Salvador. And right now, it has been a year and a half since I have used my passport.

I am getting an itch to travel again. 

I don't know what it is going to look like or where I am going to go or when I am going to go, but I am going to go.

Here is my bucket list of countries I want to visit:

(1) Spain:  (because I love the Hispanic culture and my aunt lives there)

(2) Morocco:   (because I love both the Hispanic culture and the Middle Eastern culture and Morocco mixes them both)

(3) Italy:     (because I have always wanted to go there since I was a little girl)

(4) Guatemala:  (because I like Central America)

(5) Australia:   (because I LOVE the movie...)

(6) Wales:    (because my family is originally from there)

(7) India:      (because it has such a distinct yet diverse culture)

(8) Thailand:   (because I like Thai coffee...)

(9) Canada:    (because it is the US's neighbor)

(10) France:   (because who doesn't want to see the Eiffel Tower?)

thanks to weheartit

We will see where this adventure bug takes me.
