Hey everyone!!
My name is Tiara Benvenutti, I'm 16 years old and I am a sophomore at MetEast High School in Camden, NJ. I started this blog because I got the amazing opportunity to go on my first abroad trip! Just for some background info on me, I can honestly say that I am a very . . . unique individual. I love all types of music from Heavy Metal to Musicals, and I'm proud to admit that I am a self-proclaimed Geek! I love reading and drawing, but my true passion is working with animals. I also will admit that this trip has me extremely excited. I've never been farther than Puerto Rico, so going out of the country is going to be wickedly awesome!!! We're going to be visiting Antigua, Guatemala and I can say that this probably going to be the best summer of my life so far.
When it comes to the trip I feel most excited about having the chance to meet new people. I used to be a very shy person, but after coming to MetEast I'm always looking forward to making new connections. I really want to pick the brains of people who live in different countries and see what they think about the important topics the world is facing, and I would love to see how teenagers from another part of the world live. The only things I'm nervous about are the homes stays because I can never sleep when I'm not in my bed, and the whole new food issue is going to be difficult. I have a very sensitive stomach so I'm worried about getting sick when I'm over there. Other than those two concerns, I'm ready to get going!! Keep on reading to see what happens next!! ^.^
Peace and Love!
