This is a photo taken from Pompeii, as we've just learned in class. I had the amazing opportunity to visit this unreal place when I was 12 years old. I really can't explain how cool it was; even at such a young age I could see the value it had and I felt that it affected me in a big way. Walking through the alleys and even stepping right in someone's living room was even unnerving in a way. It's a lot like a ghost town, but also a mixture of feeling so dead but also feeling so alive. If you ever have the opportunity to visit this must-see place, do so. It will change your life and you probably aren't going to see anything as impactful or morbidly beautiful as long as you live.
