.. MY FIRST TRIP.. . ☆

『 N E W Y O R K 』

Today, I wanna talk about my first trip in USA.

During last winter vacation, I went to NewYork by myself. Before leaving. I was so nervous and worried about my trip such as ' Is it ok to go alone? Can I find the way well?' When I'm thinking of it now, it's really needless anxieties.lol. I'm a shy person so I've never thought about traveling alone before I came to America. However, I tried to do it cuz I wanted to change my personality of shyness and lacking confidence.

My trip was from January 2 to 10 and I stayed guest house running by a Korean woman. I traveled from lower Manhattan to uptown. While traveling, I met a kind old man. It's the day which I went to Central Park. As I mentioned above, I can't find the way well. (So I was lost lots of times in NYC.) When I got lost in Central Park as always, the man walked up to me and he said, " what are u looking for? If u want, I wanna help you to look around here. " I said, yes! :D . He explained lots of things that I never know before about the Park. (Frankly speaking, I didn't make a plan how I travel , I just went to NYC with a guide book. lol. His explaining was more excellent than my pocket book.:)) At that time, I felt that traveling alone is not bad if I meet a good person like him. And I also traveled one day with a stranger I met the guest house. She's also Korean and we went to Washington,D.C. It's a raining day. If I went there alone, I came back home early with several pictures. But I could make the day the best day in my trip because of her. Because we're two, the trip was so nice although our clothes got wet. Traveling makes a stranger a friend. .. haha.

While traveling, I never feel lonely and bored contrary to my worries even thougt I'm alone. I did all of things such as eating at a good restaurant, taking pictures and sightseeing alone for the first time. Doing alone is not difficult unlike I thought. If I didn't go to trip alone, I'm still frightened about doing alone. So I think my trip to NYC changed me a little bit. The one I wanna say is that..~

GO TO TRAVEL ALONE IF YOU HAVEN'T TRAVELED ALONE AND FEEL YOUR OWN TRIP☆★ :)
