I feel like I should have some profound things to say, but simply don't have time right now as my sister and her husband are moving today and I'm at their apartment and need to get ready for the movers to come in about 2 hours (they are currently at the closing of their first home purchase -- very exciting!). But, I've done lots of reflecting on the trip along the way, as you can see in the past entries (especially the one on Thanksgiving and the early September entries when I just got back to the US after 6 months of travelling). And, you can expect more of that as I try to readjust to a usual routine and being in the US.
In the meantime, I'll answer my two most frequently asked questions:
What was my favorite place?
Hard to choose, as I've really enjoyed every place I've been. But I will definitely go back to Guatemala, Mexico (I feel like I could spend a year just travelling in Mexico!) and the Bay Islands in Honduras for sure to do more scuba diving.
Did I have any latin lovers?
Nope. And, at least in the countries I visited, I think the latin lover thing is a total myth. Maybe they`re somewhere in South America.... Although, I did meet a guy in Oaxaca City who couldnīt have been more than 17 and when he sent me an email it said something to the effect of "I have never met anybody so beautiful as you, your eyes are like the sweet dawn, you are like the soft breeze that touches the flower petals every dawn...." I couldn't believe the translation myself, but that's pretty much the jist of it. So, maybe there's some potential there.
Anyway.... hope everyone is enjoying the holidays. Looking forward to reconnecting with many of you in the New Year.
Best wishes,
Jen
