To start off my blog today I want to introduce to you an interesting article I found on why student travel is important. I strongly believe this article is a great introduction to my Genius Hour Question and I hope you enjoy the read!

Why Student Travel Is More Important Than Ever Before https://t.co/vM5FxRvNV7 via @HPLifestyle

After reading that article I hope to have caught your attention! My Genius Hour question is What is the most cost efficient way students can travel across Europe? I chose to create this as my question because I personally have always wanted to travel, and still do. I think it is extremely important to give time to yourself to have fun and relax, considering university and college is so stressful for most. Some individuals are so caught up with completing their degree, getting a job right away, starting a family and owning their very first house BUT...people don't realize there are limitations to these great accomplishments. Therefore, my Genius Hour Question will hopefully help students to travel and explore before they decide to commit to things that may not allow them to live as freely. I choose to measure my progress by creating an itinerary including flights, destinations, prices and creating a budget. I also hope to take all this information I have gathered and go on the vacation I have created.

To end my blog I am going to share an awesome site we used in class today, it is called Powtoon! It allows anyone to create awesome projects and it has grown on me since I've started using it. Check it out in the link below, Enjoy!
