What it is Like to Be a Vermonter

When I visit cities around the country I realize how much I love the landscape and people that make up the Green Mountain State. Our state’s tourist numbers prove my point. Many out-of-state citizens enjoy Vermont very much, from the lake to the mountains. I am proud, and grateful to have these opportunities in my backyard. As a Vermonter I feel a responsibility to preserve these attractions so others who are not as fortunate to live in Vermont can partake in their beauty as well. To me being a Vermonter is a privilege as well as a responsibility. Although Vermont is a small state, nevertheless I am still very proud to call myself a Vermonter because Vermont has had a great impact on my life.
