One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My Most memorable travel experiences include:
1. returning back to buenos aires where i was born and finding my dad's old friend after 25 years and having him show me pictures of me when i was a baby. he kept these photos all these years with the hope that i would return to get them.

2. dancing in carnevale in rio with my two best friends.

3. walking around in the streets of paris, spending the day getting lost in musee d'orsee.

4. taking a solo road trip to sedona and climbing to the top of the red rocks...exhiliration and peace at once.
