A World of Travel

Upon discovering that I was going to have to create either a magazine spread or a two minute movie entry for my AICE exam, I quickly debated about my decision and was set on developing an intricate magazine spread. When our instructor informed us of the final assignment, anxiety began to build as I am not one to be an expert within the area of technology. However, as nervous as I was I had a captivating idea, which I knew I could strongly represent in a magazine.

Although I am only a high school student, I have traveled to many different countries and consider myself an expert at traveling within the states. But there's a catch. I am all for visiting the well-known, world famous attractions such as the Eiffel Tower and stunning Machu Picchu, yet I don't spend much time in those areas. Instead it has become a religion to explore the unknown and take advantage of the beautiful untouched scenic routes. I'd rather spend my time exploring the landscape than suffocating within the crowd waiting to throw a coin into the Trevi Fountain. So, that's where I had the idea to allow others the understanding behind taking a different perspective to traveling. Over the course of the next month, I am going to interest you in the development of my magazine spread devoted to what I would consider "detours" worth the drive and time to experience a world you never knew existed.

 If there is one thing I would consider myself to be an expert at, it would be enjoying the world with no expectations. The greatest escapes come within adventure.
