Hi everyone! My name is Marly, and I'm excited to take you on an adventure with me. I grew up in both New York before living in Texas. My favorite things to do are play tennis, explore new places, and learn about different cultures. I also love going for walks and discovering cool spots in nature. Ever since I was little, I've dreamed of traveling to faraway places. I would look at maps and imagine all the exciting things I could see and learn.
That’s why I decided to study abroad in London, a big city in a country called England. London is famous for its double-decker buses, red phone booths, and even a giant clock called Big Ben! But I’m not just going to London to see the sights. I’ll be studying at a university, learning new things every day, and meeting people from all over the world. I’m also going to try some British food, like fish and chips, while learning how to cook on my own.
I’m really excited to share my journey with you and will tell you all about the fun places I visit, the new friends I make, and the interesting things I learn. I hope that by following my adventure, you’ll feel like you’re right there with me, exploring London and having fun. Maybe one day, you’ll even want to travel and have your own amazing adventures!
