The Journey, Part 5: Our little town
Finally, we made it back to our little town where we spent many years of our childhood. I was really looking forward to wandering around, seeing my old houses, my old school, the little playground where I fell off the slide that one time, the “big hill” I would ride ride my bike down. We [...]

The Journey, Part 4: Natural wonders
On my trip, I got to see some truly wonderful things. But what stood out the most, and what I’m most passionate about, are the natural wonders out there.
