One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most important/life changing experience was when I studied abroad in Sweden for a year. It gave me my first chance to live a non-touristy life outside of US borders and it gave me an opportunity to experience most of Europe first hand with newly acquired friends. I now have an inquenchable thirst for traveling and meeting new people from exotic lands. My main handicap now though is I only know English but Im in the process of learning Spanish now.
