Charlotte was a nervous person. Charlotte was seventeen years
old and had never visited another city or country. She lived on a very
isolated farm far outside of a smaller village in Quebec.
She didn't have a car. She didn't have a cell phone or TV. She
didn't like technology because she didn't trust it. At Charlotte's house,
there was only one radio to listen to the weather report.
One day, she listened to her radio. There was a contest and the
winner would get a free trip to New York City, USA. Charlotte ran to a
neighbor's house to use her phone to call the radio station. She dialed the
number and...she won!
Charlotte was thrilled but she was also very nervous. She had
never been on a plane before. To fly, she would have to travel by bus to
Quebec City. She had never taken a bus or a plane, and she was afraid. She
decided to stay home and not go on the trip.
