young in the rainforest

I landed in Colombia at the end of May with my big 65L Osprey backpack and excitement in my step! I was meeting a friend at the airport who I hadn’t seen since the fall. We wandered the streets of a beach town on the coast of Colombia, tucked away in a hippie humid town in the rainforest up in the mountains, road motorbikes to waterfalls, cocoa and coffee bean farms, and even managed to get swarmed out of our hostel room one night from a flying ant army. We worked, we laughed, we ate, we lived - young and free and oh so boldly.

From Colombia, I flew to Peru to end off my journey of 6 months of travel. I was on my way to fulfill seeing a sight I had dreamed of seeing since I was a little girl.

All for now,

All my love,

Onward.
