I sat around the house for years when I was married dreaming about where the next family vacation would be. We were able to take a trip every once in awhile but it always seemed like there was one more bill to pay, one more rental house to work on OR one more crazy "science" experiment the ex had to try...don't get me started...don't even get me started. Life passed me by while I cleaned another room and cooked another meal. My job as a mother IS the best and most important job I've ever had and will ever have but I'm not going to lie I still have wanderlust in my soul. It's just who I am. So, when your bestie texts and asks if you can squeeze in a quick trip to Costa Rica for "excursions research" and professional photography my immediate answer was YES! I finally feel like I'm living again after my long drawn out, exhausting divorce. It feels good to feel alive and I'm trying to cherish and savor every new adventure that comes my way. This Costa Rica trip was filled with paddleboarding at sunrise, witnessing pilot whales frolicking in the water, ziplining "Superman" style, howling back at Howler monkeys in the trees, hugging a toucan, driving my jetski like a mad woman and screaming at the top of my lungs, "WooHoo! Chester's Dead!" and ripping through the muddy river on my ATV and almost flipping it over backwards on me (that's a whole other story). I'm really not sure what the future holds for me but what I do know is...adventure awaits. #travelphotographer #fourseasons #costarica #diamante #gopro #livinglife
