A Second Chance At a Deferred Dream.

Where would we go?

Although I’d traveled extensively, the world was so big.

Even though we had virtually no idea what we were doing, I never looked at this as some overwhelming or scary process.

Were there many decisions to make? Sure.

Did we have a lot to learn about the process? Certainly.

Were we going to thrust ourselves into a new environment, new culture, and possibly encounter a language barrier? Absolutely.

But when you crave a new kind of freedom, you make peace with stepping out of your comfort zone to make new decisions and take new actions.
