My first international trip is very memorable to me. First, because I went to the US; Second, because I was going alone – meaning no family member went with me; And third, because I went there for something I really love – music!

My years of stage training and rehearsals paid off when I finally auditioned at a local performing group for a series of performances in the US. We had a show in New Jersey so we decided to drive to New York during our free day and experience the city.

I was 15 then and I have to say I fell in love at first sight. The busy streets, the tall buildings, and especially the theaters housing the musical shows I only hear from my CDs back home. There was so much to take in that a day there is just not enough! I promised myself I would go back and 10 years later, I finally did.

The waiting was over. I was so excited to re-experience New York, and to me, every day is a dream come true! If you’ve seen my instagram feed, you’d know I enjoyed myself. I can’t wait to share my adventures to you, now that I got more time because midterms is finally over!

I’ll be writing as much as I can and I can’t wait to share every post to all of you! For now, I’ll share you some photos of the trip.. Enjoy!
