Fingers crossed that I can bring some worthwhile content to everyone.\u00a0<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p id=\"viewer-ac9er\">I love life and I love to travel so naturally my blog posts will be about traveling and living life to the fullest. I want to share about destinations, ways to get good deals, insider tips for wheelchair travelers and of course motivational affirmations because who doesn\u2019t enjoy those?<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p id=\"viewer-jb2a\">I think that traveling is such a gratifying experience for me because you find a greater appreciation for the world. Being up close and personal with the landscape, history, and culture of a location are what it is all about for me. Matter of fact, history and culture were always my favorite subjects in school and actually I almost majored in history, but I could never actually figure out what I would do with that degree (I knew I didn\u2019t want to be a teacher!) You have all browsed and liked my facebook posts as Donnie and I have traveled to many places in these past years. I plan to go back and turn them into blog posts of their own and add in even more info while sharing on our future travels as well.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:quote -->\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p><strong>\u201cTravel makes one modest.

It doesn\u2019t have to be far and it can be done on the cheap (I also plan to post about this!) so just go do it. I intend to inspire you all to enrich your lives by visiting somewhere other than home. There\u2019s a wealth of history, culture, and knowledge at you fingertips all you have to do is reach for it &lt;3<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p id=\"viewer-farih\">Now that we talked about why I love to travel let\u2019s talk about why I love life. If you know me then you know that I have been through my share of sh** plus some. I had a good childhood and enjoyed many things because I had great parents. I was a star athlete which afforded me many experiences that others may not. My parents always taught me to work hard, know what I want, and never ever give up. It is a great thing that they raised me that way because a few months before my 19th birthday I had a car accident that changed my life forever. I spent nearly 6 months in the hospital and rehab and there were times that it was unknown if I would make it. I was left paralyzed from my t5\/t6 down. When something like that happens you have a different view of life. For me I realized that even though this sucks that it happened I have a second chance at life. I have more time to spend with family and friends, I have more time to reach life goals, more time to travel \u2026 I have more time! With that said I try to enjoy everyday that I have on this Earth.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p id=\"viewer-cuejd\">Tomorrow is not guaranteed so live your life to the fullest. Tell your family and friends you love them and do it often.
