ack, feature leads

I'm not finished! Please excuse the mess that is my feature leads.

1. Compare//Contrast
For most Americans, a trip to a grocery store is nothing interesting. The same old aisles lined with flashy colored boxes of over-processed food don’t offer much in the ways of excitement. But for fourteen-year-old Clarissa T., who lives in Belgrade, Serbia,  the experience can be astounding.

“Walking into an American grocery store is mind-blowing for me,” Clarissa said. “There’s so many options, it’s insane!”

2. Descriptive-ish  
She’s lived in Washington D.C., Moscow, Berlin, San Francisco and now Belgrade, the capital of Serbia. She’s visited four continents and more countries than she can remember. She speaks two languages fluently and several others partially.


3. Narrative//Descriptive
Clarissa T. has moved countless times, from country to country, across continents. By now she's used to the flying, the packing, the different cultures. But there are some things that you never really get used to, like leaving the people you'll never see again.
