Traveling

When I was a child and sitting in front of the TV and watching the Discovery Channel, I was totally attractived by what it showed, not only the nature of the earth but also those which were created and built by human beings around the world. Through it I found the world is much bigger than that I imagined, and those different cultures from different countries are so interesting. And after that I began to have a dream, which is to travel around world, to visit as much as possible places on earth, to see those wonders of the world by my own eyes.
I was born in Shanghai, I had comfortable life there. One day, my parents told me that we had a chance to immigrate to the United States, and asked me if I was willing go there. I knew when I be in US, I would face a lot of problems because I would be in a totally different country with different cultures from my motherland. Finally I still decided to come here, one of the most important reasons was that I wanted to feel a different world from what I was living in before.
When I was reading the textbook, I saw a sentence " The world is a book and those who don't travel read only a page", I totally agree with it and I also believe that the world is a book that can not be finished, but I hope I could read as much as possible.
