My Journey Maria Hernandez

My best journey was when i left the country after 10 years in the United States.I was going to Mexico, thats where i'm from. I wasn't excited at all. I didnt want to leave my friends. At the time, i barely ever spent time with family, i was always out with my friends.My parents thought it would be good for me to go meet and spend some time with family for a while. I was a little nervous because i'm not very good at speaking spanish. I didnt wan't to feel like an idoit over there.
My family and I spent 2 days driving to mexico! It wasn't fun at all. But when we finally arrived, it brought back so many memories from when i was 5. I thought i was all pretty interesting. Almost everyone knew me! I met so many family i never knew of. They all told me great stories. I began to apprieciate my family alot more, and i didnt miss my friends from back home at all. i was having so much fun in ,Mexico. There was always something fun to do. There was Parties almost every day, and fairs and cook offs, and alot of shopping!

I learn alot from mexico, i got better at my spanish, and i learned how to handle the money over there, called pesos. I also realized my life didnt have to be all about my friends and going out. I got along with my family more, we even went to a really nice hotel out near the ocean. I thought that was fun. Now i cant wait to go back, and i hope its soon.
