World Tour Reflection

For my World Tour project I chose to visit three different countries, Italy, Germany, and England!
This project relates to using Creativity, Decision Making, and some Digital Citizenship. Creativity - By choosing three countries to visit with only $5,000 to spend in each country, making sure you get a souvenir, have a tour or some cultural event, relates to using our creativity in finding out what we're going to do, what we're going to get, and how we're going to do it, all in a 2 week time-range. You get to decide what you're going to do with that $5,000 all by yourself.
Decision Making - Decision Making is used throughout the entire project. You only have $5,000 to spend making sure you get to do what you want to do, getting a souvenir, and staying the night at hotels! You also have to decide on flight patterns, whether you want to take a one-way, multiple destinations, roundtrips, all of that! Deciding if you want to stay at a cheap hotel or motel, or an expensive fancy one! Its alot of decisions to make.
Digital Citizenship - We're using the internet to help us with our project. Going to websites, using them properly, we're using Digital Citizenship.

I learned how expensive it is to travel to other countries, and with the limit of $5,000 for activities and other parts needed in the project, it makes it more difficult. Making sure you spend the money wisely and as best as you can.
The part that I'm most proud of of my project, is that I actually managed to spend majority of the money.I'm very happy with my work, I got to look at three countries I'd visit with $5,000. I'm also very happy where I ended in my project.
Here is a link to a little "commercial" part of my project that I did.
