Am I a good traveler?

I believe that I am a pretty good traveler because I enjoy talking to the people, learning about their culture, and trying the food. Even when things aren't looking so great I still try to make the best out of my experience. Also, I spend the extra time and money to try the food, or as much of it as I can. I think that if I really had to travel by myself I'd be able to do it, but it would really push my comfort zone. I don't really need the teachers to tell me where to go, or what to do. But, I've never lived on my own, so I think that I'm not exactly ready to go to a foreign country by myself. Also, I think it's more fun to go with a friend anyways because then you have someone to share the experience with. Also, being a girl I'd have to be a lot more careful in places like China because I could get stolen away!

We dried up today from the cold wet rain at the pool. It was really cool because it was a salt water pool. I tried swimming in it, but it was way too cold! Katie asked me to tumble, and then everybody wanted to see it! Later today we went to the night markets and had pizza, that you could see that they made, and really good gelato. Tomorrow we go to the Great Barrier Reef!!!
