When it comes to traveling,, there are different types, but many just group under the same heading, "average." They don't think outside the box or try to explore people and culture until it's raw. They don't ask enough questions or spend enough time getting to know a person. They don't have a constant curiosity that leads them to unknown places, communities, and hearts. They just travel to "travel" and this is not very exciting and does not contribute much to the country. It just aids in the financial component to help the economy.
There are other kinds of travelers that are extra-ordinary travelers who cross boundaries, learn in abundance, explore to the max, and learn from real people in the community. These people may be seen on travel TV shows or have extensive blogs or websites on their travels. These people love travel, but they also love to learn from people and do something special....they entertain. This seems to be the case for myself and this reality cannot be ignored.
While my impact on people is genuine, it's also extremely entertaining. There are locals and tourists both happy and laughing their hearts away. The joy that I spread with others is natural and through the spirit of my higher power, but it's also just hilarious. Sometimes people are laughing until they cry or they are falling of their chairs on a bus. It's quite beautiful to create that kind of positive reaction from people. When you have the ability to change someones frown into a smile, to make someone laugh in difficult times, to help a boy learn with a lot of education and a little laughter, to provide inspiration and encouragement to a lost soul-it's never ending beauty that is so rewarding. With it being personally rewarding, it could be rewarding others through entertainment.
While my best friend and I discuss having our own travel reality show, it is something that has become so clear on this trip. The ability to touch, inspire, relieve, empower, assist, pray, give hope, and lend a helping hand - it is something that is life changing. There are moments that cannot always be described and to videotape it may provide entertainment, but also clarity and entertainment.
It's controversial and something I think about whether recording it is beneficial to communities? Would certain cultures be against it?
There are all of the negative points, but there are many travel shows that do break boundaries and go out of the box and into a completely different travel world-that could possibly be me.
It truly feels like it could be or it at least feels like I can take my identity within these communities to new levels. It's easy to be called just an "average traveler", but I know my worth and so does my higher power. He creates all of these interactions, meetings, moments, and times them accordingly.
Things happen for a reason and when the end of the day hits so does clarity. For example, I missed my bus so I could sit with the lady with 5 kids and talk to her about how to better cope with her life challenges. It all comes together and within me there is a shining star. It's shining bright from above and it allows me to challenge people in a whole new way and in a way that it genuine, creative, and innovative.

Think outside the box and travel like a shining star making the world a bit brighter each and every time....
