The weight of the world, which had been pressing down on her for so long, seemed to lift, leaving her feeling free. Her online friend, "TravelTrekker," had been her escape, her connection to a world beyond her own. The discovery that TravelTrekker, a.k.a. Finn, lived in the same city was a portal to possibility, a promise of adventure.

She started packing her bag. She dusted off her passport. She started planning all of the places she wanted to see. She began to dream. She finally knew what she wanted to do, and the world was finally open.

She texted Finn. "Where should we go first?" He responded, "Anywhere you want!" A grin split across her face.
