STA Travel: World Traveler Intern 2009 - Alyssa Travis

Hi STA Travel and YouTube Viewers! I hope you all enjoy my video! I know I did! Please feel free to comment and rate my video! Have a good one!

Love,
Alyssa

P.S. Here are the lyrics (you know, just in case you want to sing along):

There's a man sitting by a fountain.
He's selling bookmarks, covered with his poetry.
And he's trying to get back to his family.
He's just one person that I never would have met
If I stayed home in Arizona,
If I stayed in the U.S.

Now I'm walking in the footsteps of kings
Down by the old park
And I'm staring at the people passing by.
I got nothing to do this lazy afternoon,
So I'm eating watermelon with a spoon.

I dove into the metro and I look to my right
And there's an old man with his wife.
And that same old man, he plays the violin.

And this must be it.
I'm chasing footsteps of people different than me.
I'm chasing dreams and beautiful things.
I go into the museum on another continent
And see the paintings of people I would never ever see.

So let me go and I will show
All the beauty that they don't know.
And I will laugh and I will dance
And I will show them just what they're missing.

I got lost in the bright green metro.
And I walked right down to Mexico.
I got food poisoning
And I threw up eleven times in one night,
But that was alright
'Cause I told Chuck Norris jokes by firelight.
(Chuck Norris doesn't throw up. He throws down.)

So, let me go!
I'll bring them the smiles
That they need to convince them to go where they've never been.
I'm hangin' with the people who are different from me.
So give me a chance and I'll show you.
Give me a chance and you'll see.
Ohhhh-Ohhh-Ohhh! Oh-oh!

Well, actually it was 11 times in one night over the span of five hours. It was horrible, but really funny. A bunch of us were sick. The family we were building a house for gave us burritos. The salsa...was poisoned!! So, we sat there around our campfire throwing up together and telling Chuck Norris jokes. And that, my friend, is a great way to get to know your friends better.

[AirTravel55]

Haha, guys. I could hear it playing from your room! It was sweet music to my ears! Lol.

[AirTravel55]

Hey guys! I posted the lyrics! They're under the description! Thanks to everyone for watching! <3

[XingXeric]

This is an amazing film. Haha, I think I stick out with the banjo, lab coat, handkerchief, aviators, and cowboy hat. Seriously, good job.

If I could vote for you to be the STA Travel Intern, I would. Then I would go out side, put a trench coat on and a fake mustache, come back in and vote again. You are the coolest kid I know.

[qauz555]

I hope you win so I can watch you travel around in true Alyssa Travis style.
