I have been traveling since before I could walk, carried in a baby carrier throughout the smokey mountains and along the east coast of the United States. Growing up, I camped or traveled through almost every state in the USA with the exception of Hawaii and Alaska. Coming from a family so consumed with exploring, camping, and travel it is amazing that I did not travel overseas until a few years ago during my second year of college.
Perhaps feeling behind, I spent one year studying abroad in Suwon, South Korea, and the next living in London, UK, visiting over 20 countries in the process. Now, I am begining the long process of documenting my past travels, while planning future adventures. |
|  | Suwon, South Korea I started off my travels by moving to Suwon, South Korea for a year of study abroad starting in August 2002. Suwon is only 45 minutes or so from Seoul which allowed for numerous trips into the capital city. I also had nearly three months of winter break between semesters which I used to travel to places such as Beijing, Thailand, Hong Kong, Vietnam, Malaysia, and Tokyo. Trips inside S. Korea consisted of Cheju Island, DMZ, Busan, and undeveloped regions. |
London, UK 2003-2004 In september of 2003, I started a year of study in London at Queen Mary, University of London. Though I was on the eastern edge of London, I was only a few minutes by bu from the financial distric and St. Paul's Cathedral. Living in the East Side, also gave me a chance to experience a different London atmosphere, complete with a variety of cultures and ethnicity's. |  | |
|  | Europe Continent While living in London, I was able to extensively travel around Europe. I visited countries such as Germany, Italy, Sweden, Austria, Switzerland, France, Belgium, and Spain. Inside the UK, I traveled to Scotland, Brighton, Bath, and Oxford. Sometime these trips were done alone, other times I traveled with friends, and many times I was visiting friends I had made while studying in South Korea. |
