This is What the Trip of a Lifetime Looks Like

April 27, 2016

I mentioned in my 5 year travel bucket list that I was headed to my first destination this year: The Galapagos.

Back in the summer of 2015, I sat on an outdoor rooftop in Chicago with my husband and our four best friends, two of which were about to embark on a year-long trip traveling South America. We gathered around a table in the warm night, surrounded by city lights, drinking cold beers, and dreaming about what it would be like to meet up in the Galapagos one day.

I don’t have the vocabulary or the writing skills to explain the eight days we spent sailling across the islands, experiencing life in a new way, so here is the next best thing.  The actualization from that day of rooftop dreaming.

Enjoy!

    Literally got tears at 0:10 as soon as I saw the plane. And I wasn’t even there.

    Well once again I tried to leave a comment and once again it got sucked into spam. I give up.
