I am daring abroad!

I up and left my home country, Kenya when I got a full scholarship to go study in the United Kingdom , Scotland specifically, for a year - which has become a haven of a couple 'firsts' for me :
- First international trip
- First and longest time I have ever been separated from my family
- First solo trip abroad ( and for many more to come)

I have loved every single minute of it- the experience has been phenomenal. Even the cold weather has been bearable as this was something I have always wanted to be a part of. I am also reconnecting with myself - and loving how that is turning out to be. I am living out the dreams of my childhood - which were to travel across continents, and that is being fulfilled one trip at a time.

We are one body, one human race. A quote Publius Terence, the Roman playwright wrote resonates with me:

"I am human, and I think nothing human is alien to me."

Thus whether we share the same beliefs or not does not matter-I will extend care, respect, kindness, forgiveness and lots of grace.

I love to discover and explore new places and always long to be one with nature in the outdoors or to see new places that I have only ever heard of. I am collecting meaningful travel stories and hope we can be cordial and become good friends with you when I stay with you or I host you.

So, are you the person I am meeting next? I hope so!

PS - I am glad you read this far ;)
