About the Pilgrim

Alyssa Melder
I am a Junior studying Business Administration at Saint Martins University and one day I stumbled upon the opportunity of a lifetime: travelling to Spain and Morocco!  I was super excited to join the travel team until I heard this trip would be about food... yes FOOD!!! Now I am all hands on deck for an epic excursion to learn about culture in the best way possible: to simply immerse myself in it.  

I have a lifetime of knowledge including (but not limited to) singing, being a girl, and cooking that will assist me in preparing for this journey.  I also have this blog in order to learn about all the destinations as much as I can before I arrive.  In my lifetime, I have already hit three continents: North America (because I live here) Australia when I was in the 8th grade, and Europe on a pilgrimage in high school.  Out of my family, I will be the first to visit Africa and I am so excited to experience the new culture.  

And finally, there is no better way to start a trip than to have my 21st birthday on the flight over!  The world will officially be my oyster so follow along as I prepare and embark on the journey of a lifetime!  
VAMOS!
