You don't have to book a trip around the world in order to practice appreciating and navigating a new community and culture. You can start with small trips, like traveling to a different part of your city!
You asked wonderful questions and I am so grateful for the stories you shared with me. Traveling is all about learning more about the people you meet, like we did in this traveling experience we shared.
¡Que te vaya muy bien, amigo/as! Good luck and I hope we will meet again on another journey.
