Assignment 3- A grateful traveler- Chuck Logsdon

I am very lucky to have parents that love traveling. I was able to visit a different country on 2 separate occasions. I visited Mexico when I was around 9 years old and while I enjoyed the trip I do not feel like I got much cultural exposure as we stayed in  tourist area. I did, however, get to see many Meso-American ruins which was very cool. I also visited the Bahamas. The area in the Bahamas we visited did not turn out to be the tourist area we expected but rather a very poor part of the Bahamas with a large homeless population. While this was uncomfortable for me at the time it was definitely a learning experience as I gained a new perspective on the struggles in different countries. Outside of those 2 trips I have traveled all over the country but I have not visited many northern states which is something I would like to do.
