CURRENT MISSION

We are traveling up the coast of South America to Quito, Ecuador, trying to see the most beauty as possible in between!

ABOUT ME

Eighteen days after graduation, we moved to Santiago, Chile to teach English, improve our Spanish and experience a new part of this incredible world! We are now on our way up to Ecuador where we hope to find beauty in the most unexpected places.

What we miss most from home: the cutest pup in the entire world, Lailita Bandita Franchesca McGinnis and BAGELS!

11. Visionary tics shivering in the chest
12. In tranced fixation dreaming upon object before you
13. Remove literary, grammatical and syntactical inhibition
