I just might be crazy...

...because I booked an adventure trip to Central America for the summer on a whim!!!! I had an "itch" this week to pick myself up and go on a solo adventure. Hey, that's what frequent flyer miles are for, right?!?! This year has been all about pushing myself outside of my comfort zone again and doing the things I've always wanted to do, the things I probably would have done by now if the pause button wasn't hit while I was going through and recovering from my surgeries.  I haven't been on a real vacation in almost a decade and it is beyond time to get out and see the world.  I had an absolute blast traveling to Europe twice last summer (Portugal and England), but those were both work trips.  It's time to explore on my own and I figured I might as well keep the summer international travel tradition going. I'm not going to let my passport collect any dust! This trip will include a lot of hiking, trekking, and adventure sports.  Oh...and I'm going to need a backpack!  It will be about 3 weeks of backpacking through Central America starting in Guatemala and ending in Costa Rica. I also better brush up on my Spanish again...it's been a few years since I've used it.
