day 8: a place i've traveled to

the farthest place i've ever been
was the country of ukraine.
the summer after my 9th grade year,
i went on my first mission trip
also my first plane ride
to ukraine.
it was a medical mission trip where we focused on
treating local ukrainians and also telling them about God.
it was an experience i will never forget.
i was able to experience a completely different culture at a young
age.
on top of that, we had an over night layover in london, where my mom,
myself and a fellow mission tripper spent the ENTIRE night
gallivanting around london. we had no idea what we were doing or where we
were going. we may have even gotten lost once of twice.
but it was so much fun! ...even though it was the middle of the night.

after that trip, i was able to go back to ukraine 2 more times. we conducted vbs
for local children and visited some children's homes. it was humbling to say the least.
i'm hoping to go on another mission trip someday soon!
