*Excerpt from journal
-At 28 I thought I would be on the fast track...job...getting married...owning a home...instead I am living in a bungalow in a small beach town in El Salvador which barely is visible on google maps, getting totally excited about a hand made bookcase from my cuidador and using cinder blocks and scrap wood as my nightstand, having fresh ginger in my camomile tea each morning, snacking on cantaloupe and watermelon smoothies daily, getting lost in a book for hours on end, still taking Boston to sunsets, eating dinner outside under a sea of glittery stars, falling asleep to the sounds of owls, and then waking up to roosters...life is crazy, sometimes unexpected, and someone once said, "Life happens when you're busy making plans. (John Lennon)
