Volcano Boarding in León, Nicaragua! I essentially put on an orange jumpsuit and rode a wooden plank down the side of a rocky, active volcano. It was a terrifying but incredible experience!
Teach, Learn, Share
"We shall not cease from exploration, and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time."
― T.S. Eliot
"I think the notion of dreaming in a time where we are told that it is foolish, futile or not useful is one of the most revolutionary things we can do. To have our lives determined by our dreams of a free world--instead of reactions to a state-imposed reality--is one of the most powerful tools of decolonization."
― Harsha Walia, Undoing Border Imperialism
“I am not a liberator. Liberators do not exist. The people liberate themselves.”
― Che Guevara
