Traveling Internationally

Well, the first time for me to travel a foreign country was when I was a university student. To be more exact, it must have been in the winter of 1997. At that time, I had prepared to travel to Europe. However, because of the sudden recession of this country, it was not  affordable for me I couldn't afford to go over there. Instead, the only country that I could choose was India. Moreover, the friend with whom I had been supposed to travel became also unavailable for some reasons. As a result, I went over to India by myself. I spent about 45 days there, meeting a lot of local people as well as travelers from all across the world, enjoying the ancient arts and their exotic cultures including their special religion. Even those though it was way tough to use night transportation as well as the cheapest accommodations as far as I could find, I really miss those days. Now, I don't believe I would be able to get into that kind of situation because I'm a little old, however I would like to remember it forever.

Hi Sean, I envy you that you had a chance to go to other country. In my case, I never had the chance to go to other country. I'm looking forward to hear your story again. Have a great day!
