If there's one thing I've learned throughout our travels (though I have learned a lot!), it's that:
it's all about the people. Whether it's someone you breifly come in contact with, or someone who ends up a life long friend, people shape our travel experiences more than we realize. After coming to realize this, I've tried to become more intentional about engaging with people during our travels. Although I wouldn't say I'm shy, I am definitely not as outgoing as I'd sometimes like to be. At times, it can be easy to go somewhere, take it all in, and leave before even engaging with the human beings that actually
live there! My goal of travelling is not to have my life be like one super long vacation (though I can't deny that it's pretty good!), my goal of travelling is to learn, to engage in other people, and to hopefully give that back to the people I engage with. If it wasn't for the people I've met throughout our travels, we wouldn't have made this trip to Bremen.
