Do or don't

Two weekends ago we ventured out to at Portobello Road located in Notting Hill. Portobello Road has a variety of antique and vintage shops also little restaurants and a cute neighborhood. It was amazing. I say that a lot but it really is! Compared to Camden Market, which I felt was similar to Canal St. in New York, Portobello Road was like Greenwich Village or Soho, with a hampton village twist. This was also the location for Notting Hill, a film that came out in 1999. We had lunch at a really good pizza shop then headed home. Today we spent the whole day visiting Windsor Castle, Stonehenge, and Bath. Breathtaking. Surreal. Epic. Wild. Definitely won't forget any minute of my first experience outside of Central London. I kept (or keep) saying was "Wow, we've actually made it. We are living the dream." Which is very true, however its not over yet. But (theres always a but)  even though I got to see such beautiful places, everyday I think about home, it makes me sad because I wish everyone can see these places. Some people may live their entire lives and never see such historical, amazing, stunning places. It makes me sad. I also kept saying, "I wish my parents could see this, I hope they come." I meant that, and I mean it still... for everyone. Being here without my family makes me miss them even more, and just home in general (but not home sick, yet) because like me, most of us spend our whole lives in one place, living life and re-living it. You make memories with all the same people because you love them and thats what we do. So doing it alone and with a few friends you're just getting to know gets rough. Regardless, money or time... nothing should hold any person back. Not one person, not one job, pet, boyfriend, girlfriend, nothing should hold anyone back from traveling or just living their dream. Travelling for one, maybe its not for everyone, but seriously?? Who doesn't want to see the Eiffel Tower or The London Eye? Often times I think about some of my friends or old friends... will they ever get to come and see the world? Do they want to? Do or don't, I wish them the opportunity.  Life changing... we have to live with it.
