This blog is about traveling and I never talk much about my personal life or politics other than things that go on when I'm traveling. I have been to over forty countries and I have liked most of them. When I travel overseas and walk through customs for the first time and I hear them say, "Welcome back to the United States!" it makes me so happy. I love coming home to the States.
In my travels I have met so many people that have so many negative opinions of the United States and I have always defended my country. If we as Americans don't defend our home, who will? I know it's unpopular these days to offer much support for the United States. Even if I don't agree with the beliefs of the president or my neighbors I have the freedom to do so without fear of persecution. (Well, not much at least!) I'm not always proud of the things that happen in America or the things that some people do. But we are a good country, a GREAT country. My grandfathers fought hard for this country so I could have a good life. I love my country. I am proud to be American. I love my fellow Americans. What I wish for our country is that Americans would travel more to other countries and realize how truly blessed we are to have peace and freedom in this country. Happy Fourth of July America!
