Travel Snacks

-

    If any of you guys reading this have any ideas about what to blog about, let me know! I am running out of fun ideas. Blog 11, travel snacks! Everyone has those snacks that they have to include on any trip in order to make it that much better. Here is my list of what is taken for any trip longer than a day and weekend.

    For those of you who don't know, I come from a family of seven! Having a big family means having to bring more snacks to keep everyone fed. Which also means having two (2) coolers, and two (2) baskets of snacks. The cooler will contain our sandwich supplies which consist of the following: a couple loafs of bread, mayonnaise, mustard (only for those who like it on their sandwich.), turkey/ham, cheese, you get the idea. We also keep carrots, apples, grapes, go-gurt, hummus in the cooler for snacks and lunches.

    Dry, sweet and salty snacks are the ones that we go through the fastest. There's something about eating a dry, room temperature snack without worrying if it's too cold for your teeth. Some of the top hits in my family are Cheez-it, beef jerkey, trail mix, gummy worms. But this is only a few.

    Very rarely does my family go out to lunch when we are driving. If we have a long day ahead of us, my sister, Treasure and I will make everyone's sandwich and send it to the front to receive chips, if the person wants them. However, when we are "camped" in a city for a couple days, we'll more likely to go out to lunch and stay home from breakfast. It all depends on what lies ahead of us that day.

    I will always have some form of sweet treat that I don't share unless I'm feeling sweet. My treats will very likely have licorice, sour gummy worms, hi-chews, sour watermelon (but only if I get lucky and find some). But if you know me and my love for candy, I can't spend an eight hour car ride without my favorite sweets.

    Hope this was insightful. As always feel reach out to me, I'd love to hear from you! Also, if you haven’t already, go check out blog #10 Backpack Essentials!

     Hi ya! I've been wanting to do a blog for a while now, but never found the time to make it work until now. A little bit about me, I am a high school senior, roundtripped to 37/50 US states (yes by car) with my family, I spent two-weeks in India I'll explain more about the trip and organization at a later time, I plan on spending a semester abroad in Ukraine with a different organization I expand on this a little more and why I decided to spend time there. I am a HUGE Disney fan! You name it, and I have probably seen it and/or listened to the sound track for it. I love movie watching, listening to music, going for drives with the windows down and music blasting throw the stereos.           For those of you out there, who want to know the weird facts here you go! Toothbrush color is purple, I'm left handed, I love drinking pickle juice, my breakfast in Elementary school consisted of mayonnaise on a slice of toast. Yes, you heard that right, mayo and toast for breakfast.

Disneyland & California Adventure

    Like I said in the last post, week #9 will be all about Disneyland. This was a one week trip taken at the end of April in 2018. I have never been to Disneyland before this, but I still had a magical time! So, here we go!!     Little did I know that my sisters and I wouldn't be alone. My parents coordinated this trip with two aunts and uncles, so instead of there being seven of us, there were 17 of us. More the merrier right?! This trip still would've been fun if it was just my immediate family, but having extended family tag along, made this trip that much better.      To start off, we spent two days in Disneyland, that also included California Adventure. This was possible because we had a two-day park hopper, which allowed to go back and forth between Disneyland and California Adventure. I don't have my travel journal with me, because I am currently at work, so I will try to do this to the best of my ability with the knowledge that remains inside my head.      At the t

Saving ⮚ Blog 13

     Money is a big issue when it comes to traveling. Most people don’t travel because they don’t have the money. Yet, here is a high school senior whose been to 34/50 states, Boston MA 2x, India and soon to be Ukraine. Three of these trips I pay in full by myself with little to no fundraising.       One of the reasons is my job. I have a well-paying and flexible job that allows me to get an education and travel, whether I travel with family, or strangers that later become friends. A job brings in money, which I can put aside and save, but it helps to know what you’re saving for. When you know what you’re saving for, you know how much it’ll cost you, which then allows you to set a plan. Back in 2019, when I went to India on a humanitarian trip for two weeks, I also had the opportunity to fly back to Boston again for a week for my sister and cousin. These two trips probably cost me about 5k total, but it was totally worth it. That might not seem like a huge chunk of money, but as a 16 y
