One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to New Zealand alone when I was 18 years old. It was right after I graduated from high school in Japan. I hadn't taken airplane alone, been to foreign alone, lived alone. I had no experience but I made it! I stayed there for 10 months. That was an amazing experience that I've had.
