Started a 1 year trip in October 2019. Spent all of my time so far in Peru (Cusco, Arequipa, Chivay, Lima, and a lot of small towns in between). Heading to Mexico and then Guatemala. Really enjoying this time of getting to know new people and surroundings.

It’s now February (wow these months are flying by!) I’ve made it to Colombia and headed south towards Ecuador :) absolutely love Colombia so far.. the most fitting word that comes to mind is ‘tranquilo’. This place is teaching me how to properly chill.

Haha, this is becoming a paragraph by paragraph diary... it is now May, and the Coronas have changed the itinerary.. I’m now back in the states and trying to figure out a plan B, or C, or G,H,I... ? I think I’m sold on this idea of Earthships. At first I thought it was a cult, but turns out it’s an epic idea for a self sustaining house. Looking forward to spending a month at the academy learning the tricks of the trade.
