The vision book that started it all MY travel dreams come true

It all started with my dream vision book. I have always wanted to see the world and all of the beauty it has to offer so about 2 years ago, i started strengthening my walk with jesus. (im a christian in case you didnt know) and he showed me these visions in which i cut out of magazines of just beautiful places and quotes and etc etc. I prayed and stared at the book everyday. Until one day, i decided im going to south america. But of course how can i do this i said to myself? Im a smoker, im just learning how to save money and barely holding on. Plus who could i travel with and how could i get there. i hadnt a clue. So i did some research and obsessed over going to brazil. I ended up hearing through word of mouth about a site called couchsurfing.org.   the site is wonderful and highly recommendable by me and many others. I was very fortunate and met this guy alex on there and he was peruvian. we ended up making a plan to see eachother after we became pen pals . But the plans changed from brazil to peru. I didnt know such beauty existed but hey i went on a hunch and i trusted my gut and this guy. I started my own business casey cares cleaning, quit smoking and . i saved every penny almost for about a year and purchased the ticket sometime at the end of the summer 2013. My family were worried because i hadnt a clue who the guy was in person nor on skype. But i knew , i just knew it was the right thing to do. and no one could have stopped me. i was determined. So my first trip a dream trip come true was in november of last year NOV 11th 2013. And i stayed up until dec 5th 2013. there are no words from what i iexperienced but to jesus and to alex i am 4ever grateful. the whole trip opened up my eyes to more future travels. Praise jesus.
