A Trip That Changed My Life

Have you ever taken a trip by yourself? Yeah. Three years ago, I traveled alone for the first time. Really? Where did you go? I visited a small village in the mountains. It was really quiet. Where did you stay? I stayed with a local family for two weeks. They were so kind to me. What did you do there? I helped them in the rice fields every morning. I also learned to cook some local dishes. That sounds like a really different experience. It was. I talked with the villagers and learned about their simple way of life. Did the trip change you in any way? Yeah, it changed how I thought about happiness. I came home feeling calmer and kinder. Wow. Did you expect that? Not at all. I never expected one trip to change my life so much.
