The First Lady said that going abroad ultimately creates “better people, smarter people—and it’s fun too.”
When asked where her first passport stamp was from, she shared the story of a trip to Paris, France; “We stayed in a youth hostel and spoke a lot of bad French,” said Mrs. Obama, adding that she learned a lot during her experience.
She elaborated on the importance of traveling, encouraging viewers to “shake the fear” and “be open.”
