Oh the places you'll go, the people you'll meet.

What a lovely day I had yesterday with my fellow British friends! They took me to this cozy little tea house where we enjoyed delicious scones with the decadent cream and homemade preserves. We did have quite a laugh when I asked what kind of tea we wanted to order, they all looked at me and said "Tea, Tea?" However, they graciously let me order my own pot of passion fruit and orange!:)

We then met up with the parents and took about an hours drive (which was not bad at all because we proceeded to beat about 10 levels of candy crush) to Grandma Morah's house, but first made a pit stop to the beautiful Brighton pier ;) Brighton is sort of like the Boulder of England except with Gypsy's instead of student's from Naropa University. I really loved seeing that old architecture and of course the carnival like feel of the Pier. We then Went to Grandma's house who was so amazed that I was standing in her doorway, she never dreamed she'd see the day! "Refer to the Previous Post for the back story"

Anyways it was a lovely afternoon & evening, It was on the ride home as I was trying to doze off that I had a brilliant thought...

To me it is so incredible that you can go anywhere in the world and meet people whose personalities match yours, where if you had lived in the same town you would probably have been friends. I think that is so fantastic. This is my favorite thing about traveling, more than the culture, the food, architecture, that is all wonderful, but the people is what really makes it. I wish that everyone would have a chance to come to that realization, that you may have great friends in your home town, but you could move anywhere in the world and find people who are just as great if not better, you can create your own social network all over 6 different continents. This has happened to me on multiple occasions, random happenings in Belize, a group of teenagers thrown together in a third world country for two weeks, the list goes on! I know it really is a simple concept, but I am just so in love with the thought that there are so many people out there who in another life would probably have been my best friend.

So my conclusion is that I want to travel all over the world and meet tons and tons of fascinating people, and that If you get a chance, don't worry about being alone, go out into the world, and explore! I guarantee you will meet people who will change your life, your perspective, and create life lasting friendships.
