One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-riding a moped up a mountain in kaui with my sister and brother, then walking through guinea grass until we came upon a waterfall which we didn't even hestitate to jump off together(kipu falls). holding hands. <3
-descending into a cave in puerto rico, pitch black with sounds of bats flying above us, then light, edge of the cave overlooking a lush green valley.
-seeing a volcano erupt a few miles away from our cruise ship in hawaii. pretty epic.
-seeing and touching the stone henge with my parents. surreal.
-ireland&scotland <3
-hiking to a hidden beach in puerto rico, made me feel like i stepped onto a beach in fiji. magical.
-spending an entire day ziplining through the mountains of hawaii with my entire family. extreme!
