My Travel Story

by: Tessa Pelosi Start Date: Sep 8, 2015 - End Date: Jan 5, 2016
13 day trip to Greece- $3900, Dinner-$15, Memories that will last forever-priceless.

Join me in my journey to the myths of Greece. I will visit Athens, Delphi, Patras, Olympia, Argolida, Epidauras, Mycenae, and even go on a 4- day cruise to other islands! Who wasn't excited to learn about Greece and the gods and goddesses during Global History? I know that it was one of my favorite topics to learn about! I finally have the chance to experince it all; whether I am at the Temple of Poseidon, the Corinth Canal, or even enjoying an authentic Greek dinner, I know that I will be living life to the fullest and making memories that I can tell others! Many people get the feelings of wanderlust and never act upon them, but I have that chance to do so! My favorite author J.R.R. Tolkien once said, "All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us." Help me raise the money to gain the experience of a lifetime! 

Earlier I had said join me, you may be wondering how you can join me on my journey. Not to fear! I have answer! One, I will be starting a blog called thetravelingspirit which you can follow! I chose to say spirit because it reminds me of my favorite song by John Denver, Eagles and Horses. The lyric goes "My spirit will never be broken or caught for the soul is a free-flying thing." My thought is that traveling to faraway lands is about losing yourself in another culture and that is exactly what I plan on doing! Also! I will be adding incentives to donation amounts! Woooo!
