The title Cate Huston chose to use seems a bit confusing for having a education narrative. It didn't seem that she was actually sharing how she learned to love traveling solo, it was more on tips of what she does when she travels. This was different compared to the other narratives as they actually taught us how they got to where they were going. In Malcolm X's, Learning to Read, it was a heartfelt direction and how he did learn to read. Maybe that is the difference with Cate's and the others, it is not from her heart, just what she does in a factual way. She has her data, goes for a long walk, gets comfortable etc.
As a blog, she did a great job of putting together ideas in separate paragraphs on each activity. If I was going to travel it would be great tips to put into practice. In fact, my husband and I are planning on going to Italy for our 35th wedding anniversary, 3 years away. Many of Cate Huston's tips we may be able to use on our trip and make it a fun, relaxing, enjoyable time.
I hope to follow a more heartfelt, personal direction in my education narrative. Lessons learned and what has happened since then. We shall see.
