How Traveling Affected me - Ludvic Girad

       I have traveled a lot in my life.  I went to some extremley poor countries and some very rich ones as well.  You can see how different the life of the people in Quebec can be compared to the lives of people living in Cuba.  I realized tha often the poorest people are often the nicest and most generous people.  I went to Cuba two times, Florida, Walt Disney and many other places in the world.  I enjoyed going to cuba more than Walt Disney, and you're probabley questioning yourself why Cuba came in first and Walt Disney in second.  Cuba was the place that made me think the most, it was actually the real life situations going on everywhere in the world.  I realized how lucky I was to have a roof at the top of my head, clean water and an education.  Walt Disney was great, but it did not really teach me anything.

       When I travel I want to know new things, be more knowlegable about what's going on in this world and not take anything for granted.  Traveling changed my life.  It makes me want to help a lot of people who are in need right now in other countries.  Traveling made me more knowlegable and more caring about many issues that people face everyday.
