Traveling is a fun experience for everyone. Whether it’s by plane, car, train, or other means, I have traveled to at least eleven different states, maybe more, and have lived in three (Georgia, Missouri, and Illinois). Due to COVID-19, flights, trains, and other public transportation have been affected. Before the major outbreak that locked us all down, masks were optional. Now they are mandatory. Covering the nose and it has to either thick cloth or a disposable mask. A dream that I have had and I’m sure others have too is to travel out of the country, somewhere like Greece, without all the COVID- craziness. Even with the new changes and not as flexible times, traveling is exciting for most of us! So take some time by yourself or with family and go travel somewhere you either haven't been to or somewhere you love. Try new things, eat new foods, and meet new people. The outcome of a trip will be worth it!
