A national park I dream of visiting is Sequoia National Park. With its towering, breathtaking Sequoias and the iconic General Sherman Tree, this park is a dream destination. The trees and the landscapes of California offer an adventure waiting to be explored. It’s more than just the destination; it’s about the journey. Trees teach us this; they are our elders, and with how tall and beautiful these trees stand, it would be an honor to visit them.
What has been your favorite adventure experience?One of my favorite adventure experiences was volunteering in Eastern Canada. While I had the chance to explore many incredible places, including Fundy Park, my most cherished memory is of Cape Breton. Visiting Cape Breton with my friend and her family was truly unforgettable; the beauty of the place, the culture, landscapes, FOOD, ocean, wheather and the kinship made it a standout experience.
What would you do with $10,000?If I had $10,000, I would start by paying off my student bills to clear my financial slate. With the remaining funds, I’d seize the chance to travel more extensively and build my confidence in solo adventures. My journey would include marveling at the stunning Sequoia trees in California and exploring other remarkable destinations. This opportunity would allow me to fully embrace each new experience, enhancing both my travel skills and personal growth as a young Indigenous woman.
