My best friend Olga, she is my other half; she brings out the best in me. I can tell you right now that we are the best travel mates in the world. We met on Semester At Sea, an amazing program where you travel the world while studying on a ship. I met her on the second day and we have been best friends ever since, traveling every country together. We have been to Puerto Rico where we swam with bioluminescent, Brazil where we danced through carnival, south Africa where we repelled down table mountain, Mauritius where we relaxed and enjoyed the beauty, India where people changed our lives, Malaysia where we slept on a mountain, Vietnam where we celebrated here 22nd b-day on a trip to the kuchi tunnels, Hong Kong where we enjoyed the night life, china where we explored and slept on the great wall, Japan where we climbed mount Fuji, Hawaii where we basked in the sun and finally back to san Diego where our next adventures are ready to start. I literally can say that Olga is my BEST friend and BEST travel partner because I literally traveled around the world with her and I would do it again in a second. I could write an essay on every travel experience we have and how those experiences made us best friends, but I’m only aloud so many words. All I have to say is even if you don’t pick us, we know we are the best travel mates and will always travel together, but you should pick us because she lives in Boston and I live in San Diego and we miss each other a lot. We are working really hard to make enough money to go on another trip together but for now we just talk every day. I can tell you I’m not exaggerating one bit, I love this girl to death and would do anything for her and want to travel to the down under with her.

Ps. I couldn’t pick just one picture, so I’m sending in a smaller version of a poster that I made her for Christmas of us jumping for peace around the world. We took a picture in every country of us jumping with the peace sign because some day we want this world to be a better place where everyone is equal. hope you enjoy it.
