One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I wandered throughout Nicaragua for 7 months - learned some Spanish, climbed some volcanoes, made awesome local friends, swam in a crater, hiked some jungles, saved a puppy, was adopted by a family, managed an island resort, got in a machete fight, befriended a monkey, taught children some English, chased a robber in my underwear, did some yoga, and fell in love with a beautiful Nica.

And that was just ONE amazing thing I've done...
