Interview of Saleh Alabbas - World Traveler

For my first blog assignment, I was granted the pleasure of interviewing the undeniably interesting Saleh Alabbas. Saleh is 21 years old and comes to the United States from Saudi Arabi. He has been in the U.S. for three years so far. This is his second year at Cedar Crest, and prior to that, he traveled to many different parts of the United States. Saleh started his journey studying English in San Diego, then Denver, followed by Indiana. He finally ended his tour of the U.S. in Allentown, Pennsylvania to study Business Management here at Cedar Crest College. 

Saleh is what I would call a "world traveler." So far in his young life, he has visited many different places in the world, and has plans to visit more! On his list of past sojourns is Vancouver and Cancun, as well as the many places he has been in the United States. One of his favorite places to visit was Cancun due to the plethora of activities he was able to enjoy, such as SCUBA diving, beach cruises and jet ski rides, just to name a few. His other favorite place to vacation was Vancouver. He enjoyed Vancouver for the picturesque hiking tours, and because it is an international city with many diverse people from all over the world. He still has a few vacations left on his agenda, such as a trip to the Bahamas that he is currently planning, as well as his dream trip to Paris.

Saleh is working on his degree in Business Management here at Cedar Crest, and plans to graduate in two years. Once he graduates, he will go back to his homestead in Saudi Arabia to work in his father's business which is an electric/oil company. I am very impressed with Saleh and all he has done at such a young age, and I wish him all the best in his future endeavors!
