US$0.00Donated So Far
My entire life, I've yearned to travel. Anywhere, any way. I live in Cottonwood, Arizona (a small town that nobody has even heard of) and the furthest I've ever been from home was to San Diego, California; ONE TIME! I've been to the ocean ONCE, on a small four-seater airplane ONCE (never on a large plane) and I've never been out of the United States. I grew up living with my grandparents and now I live in a two bedroom mobile home with my mom, stepdad, my brother and my sister. I work full time - but for minimum wage in a high stress job. I'm good at saving... but not when I'm trying to help my family make it.
For some reason, I've always been fascinated with Australia. Something... just something attracts me there and I haven't figured out what yet. I do know for sure that I want to visit the Sydney Opera House as well as the Great Barrier Reef. I have a penpal, Blake, and I'd love to meet him as well. One day, I'd also like to visit England and Ireland too. But "down und-ah" is my first goal! Airfare and a place to stay are the two most expensive parts of the trip - also the most important. I'll be traveling alone and I don't take chances like this very often so I want to make sure I'm prepared and safe.
I feel stupid asking for support... but even $1 would mean the WORLD to me and I'd write every single person who helps me a personal letter of thanks and appreciation. I'm saving, I am. As much as I possibly can. But this is just one of my many ideas of trying to make a few extra dollars towards this trip of a lifetime!
