Australia

My family and I took a trip to Australia before my 12th-grade boards. My teachers at school did ask me if my parents and I were even concerned about the fact that I have exams that are set to decide which college I go to and ultimately determine the rest of my life. Despite their concerns, my dad has continued to believe that learning should not be limited to a classroom, and nothing teaches a person more than traveling, which is exactly what I told any adult who questioned my travels. Australia was our first family trip that did not completely revolve around Polo. We did all touristy activities from lying on the Gold Coast sand to visiting Warner Brothers theme park. After visiting the Sydney Opera House, Bondi Beach, and taking a boat ride in the Sydney Harbour, our trip ended at Richmond where the Polo World Cup finals were taking place.
