I love living in Florida, it's a great place to come home to (who wouldn't want to wake up to the beach every morning???). It is so great to see other places though! Doing it on your own is definitely an amazing, mind-expanding, self-confidence boosting experience!

I can't say it enough, enjoy this experience! I hope it adds to your desire to travel!
