How has travel broadened your perspective of the world?
I haven’t traveled much internationally, but even domestic travel has shown me how different our country is as it relates to traditions, cultures, etc. We should all take time to visit every part of this wonderful country.
What do think are some of the biggest benefits of student travel?
The biggest benefit I can see is it broadens their perspectives of students on life outside their own towns. There are some students who never leave their rural community and it’s nice for them to be able to have the chance to experience the bigger cities, historical sites, etc.
When it comes to food, what's your favorite meal you've ever had while traveling?
This is tough! I usually like to try pizza in different cities to taste the difference.
What's your advice for someone who might feel hesitant to step outside their comfort zone when it comes to travel?
We only live once. If you have a chance, go out and explore what you can. I wish that when I was younger I had done more of those travels.
When you're traveling, what's your favorite media to consume?
If I’m on a plane, I’ll be watching a movie. But if I’m in the airport, I’ll be found reading a book.
