These days, few 11-year-olds are allowed to walk to school by themselves. However, 11-year-old Rosalie Atkins is traveling the world alone.
Rosalie Atkins lives in England. Her parents decided to let her travel alone. This summer Rosalie’s mother put her on a plane to Paris with a host family.
Rosalie spent a week visiting Paris. She visited the Eiffel Tower and Notre-Dame, as well as several museums, markets, and parks. “If I had visited with my parents, we would have seen only the touristy parts of Paris,” said Rosalie. “But because I was staying with a French family I saw more.” Traveling to different countries, Rosalie also expressed the confidence. “I am quite confident when I have to talk to new people, which is a useful social skill, ” Rosalie said.
