Most people look forward to one or two vacations per year. Michael Biering makes it a point to travel whenever possible. He is usually able to plan one or two long trips each year, and these are almost always to places he has never been before. In addition, he takes advantage of every long weekend or free day possible. Sometimes he travels with friends, but more often than not he is on his own.

Michael Biering has an insatiable thirst for exploration. He truly enjoys learning all about a destination and then works really hard to get there. A perfect example of this was his dream of visiting Norway. After learning of his acceptance into the study abroad program, Michael Biering had developed a spreadsheet of all the trips he would take while living there. His list was not simply Norwegian destinations, it detailed a time line, method of travel, and a budget. He was going to take full advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Michael Biering still had the responsibilities of school while he was there, but he dedicated almost every free minute he had to exploring.

Michael Biering does not have as much free time as he once had when he was in college. However, he makes time for travel whenever possible. Some weekends are perfect for a local camping trip that includes fishing and hiking. Other three-day weekends are just right for a quick flight to a music festival. Michael Biering does not need too many reasons to justify all his travel.
