Where You’re Going,
Where You’ve Been
Now that your travel experience has come full circle, take time to
reflect. Who have you become and what will you do next?
First, figure out what’s changed about you.
Think about each statement below in relation to your travel
experience, from the very first moments of brainstorming
location ideas to working on your Take Action plan.
Put a check next to each statement you feel is true of you.
I have a stronger sense of self
I know how to work together with other girls
toward a common goal
(For example, I learned it’s okay to be different from
other kids around me; I did things that made me feel
good about myself.)
(For example: I worked with a small team of girls to
research where we’d stay; I read maps and figured
out where we were going while traveling.)
I gained practical life skills
(For example: I learned how to do things I didn’t
I feel connected to my community and others
think I could do; I learned how to take care of
myself.)

helped me feel part of the global community.)

viewpoints to look at issues and ideas
I made a difference in the world
(For example: I tried to solve problems for myself

mind about something if I learned new information.)
make a difference in my community)
I developed healthy relationships with other
girls and adults
(For example: I learned I could disagree with some-
one and still be her friend; I felt like I belonged.)
Then, put the “new” you into action.
Sustain the changes within you. Keep the momentum going by applying what you learned about yourself
right now and in the future. Choose at least two statements (above) that you checked. In your journal,
write how you can use these skills or insights to help with something you plan to do this year.
