This arch, Partition Arch, challenged my strength, balance, fortitude to get to its windows. I LOVE ARCHES NATIONAL FOREST, UTAH!

Last summer, I visited a couple of countries in Europe including Italy. My favorite place in Italy was Rome. I had the opportunity to see many amazing examples of architecture such as the Colosseum, St. Peter's Basilica, and the Pantheon. I enjoyed my time in Italy and I would love to travel there again some day.

The place I have pinned is Japan. This is a dream place that I plan on visiting in the future because I want to experience and explore the culture and land of Japan. Because Japan is so different than America, it will be interesting to see how the experience is when I visit.

I don't necessarily have a specific favorite place, but I do have a favorite person. He's my best friend and lives in Fresno, so I don't get to see him often. I usually take the train to get there, which is an endeavor, but it's always fun seeing him. Some of my favorite memories have been in Fresno.

My name is Isaac Atienza and I am a high school senior currently attending North Bakersfield High School! The picture provided above is Getty Art Museum Center, located near Los Angeles, California. Such an area holds significance in my life, as the museum's architectural design and the art and history within are things that both strike my interest- being within my liking. Speaking more broadly, many attractions within Los Angeles that give way to my liking of the city, being home to a school I wish to attend: UCLA.

My name is Manuel Tu and I am a graduating senior at Liberty High School. One of my favorite places I went to was Switzerland. Because I love hiking and exploring new environments I knew I was going to love this trip. I was also fond for this country because of its different culture compared to the US. As a history nerd I always want to learn new countries and explore their culture and history. This is my most memorable trip.
