One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was doing volunteer work at a nature preserve in New Zealand, on New Year's Eve the group leader brought us on a search for kiwis. 15 minutes before midnight, we found one! At the stroke of midnight, I was listening to calling kiwis, watching glow worms, and sharing some champagne with our group and some German tourists. Amazing.
