Thank you so much for visiting my website!
This is a place for community, togetherness, and understanding. Or it might be more of a place for isolation and a little bit of misanthropy. I go back and forth.

I spent all of last week, eight days to be exact, in Costa Rica on the Caribbean side near the small town of Puerto Viejo de Talamanca. I know it was only a week and it was only a vacation. It was mainly lying on the beach and drinking Corona. It wasn’t challenging or harrowing or even that unique, yet still I’ve been struggling with the question of how to describe my time there.
