Read More Seven. Contiki: Traveling with a Tour GroupI love Italy. It was and remains to be a charming and picturesque place. Nothing shocked and awed me more in my travels than the feeling of being in this country. The clash of modernity intermingling with antiquity made the nerd in me geek out to extremes! Walking down the streets of Rome is so enchanting. […]

I graduated as a Humanities major at San Francisco State University in 2013 and still reflect on the the discussions we had in this class.

Read More An Essay: What Makes us HumanPack Your Bags Now and Go! My first international trip was with a group of my (all women) friends to Italy in 2012. That trip changed my life. I knew from then on that I had to see the world. What I didn’t realize after that trip is that it is really hard to get […]
