One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiking in Tikal before the sunrise. Hearing the Jaguars on my climb to the top of Temple IV and watching the most powerful sunrise I've ever experienced.

Also, being a young child in Santorini who just traveled from a brutal winter in NYC. My hotel was on the very top of one of their stunning sweeping hills and a kind old man offered his donkey and took me to my hotel. My mom took pictures and taught me true culture and kindness :-)
