Are You Culturious?

I am Culturious. I am curious about culture. I am a world traveler. I am inquisitive. I am adventurous. I am a knowledge-seeker. I am a participant. I want to smell the olive groves in Tuscany and pass under the shadows of waterwheels as I kayak down the Sorgue River in Provence. I am a doer. I have an active mind and body. I am not afraid to get my hands dirty. I want to take in the luminous colors and awe-inspiring cacophony of the toucans as I hike through the pristine jungle of Peru. I am in pursuit of a sense of accomplishment. I am motivated by self-discovery and discovery of the world. I am passionate about connecting with new people and new places. I want to duck and dive through the overgrowth of massive banyan trees that entangle the labyrinthine stone hallways of Ta Prohm. I will stretch my boundaries. I will savor the experience. I want to see the depth of the stars in the Arctic sky without a single electric light beneath them. I will see new horizons. I want to hear the crunch of loose dirt beneath my feet as I hike to the summit of Croatia’s Vidova Gora, pausing only when I get to the top to wipe the hard-earned sweat from my brow. I will find myself someplace new. I will get a new look. I will explore another side. I want to wade through a low-lying fog to handpick coffee beans still beaded with morning dew on a Costa Rican plantation. I am Culturious.
