I have my next trip in the works... UGANDA'2014 =)

Some food for thought...

"We can travel a long way and do many things, but our deepest happiness is not born from accumulating new experiences. It is born from letting go of what is unnecessary, and knowing ourselves to be always at home."

Long Time No Blog

It feels like it has been forever since i have sat down and blogged and I guess it has been quite awhile. I seem to be cooped up inside this weekend so far due to the heavy rain that we are getting which is definitely a blessing for the country but makes for a quiet weekend for me. Perhaps I should be studying? Instead I have been laying in bed watching netflix =P

So my last post was vaguely about an unfortunate event that has happened to me on my trip. I have moved on from it so there isn't much to say but basically I was robbed. The experience was awful but all I can say is I am thankful it wasn't worse and feel very blessed about that. Unfortunately I lost my cell phone, my camera and some cash.. I had also lost my wallet with my ID and debit/credit cards but some kind hearted soul found them and returned them to me. & so since I last wrote, nothing else as significant or exciting has been happening but my friend Vinh did come to visit me from Seattle which was fun .. we got to go out a bit around Kingston which I think solidified some of my favorite spots... *the chillest vibe is definitely Dub Club which is up in the hills on SKYLINE DRIVE (some of the specials in my life may know the significance of this for me) The spot is amaazing with a view of all of Kingston and the easy listening to sick Dub all night..its perfect. & then we spent a few days in Treasure Beach. This is definitely the 'it' spot for relaxation and beauty without all of the touristy -ness. + getting to see my spirit animal.. dolphins <3  = a major highlight of my entire trip (probably even my life!) All in All we had Good Times =)

Anyways, other than these recent events I am sharing via images.. I have pretty much just been soaking Jamaica into my soul and trying to embrace the rest of my time here.. I can feel it quickly running out. Bittersweetness.

Vinh & I did some baking.. s'more cups! MMM

You are showing me your many colors.
Not only do I get to experience the medical system. But now the criminal justice system too.

Sigh* it could always be worse.

Blessed.
