Happy Anniversary to me!πŸŽ‚
August marks year 1 of me living the dream by moving to Costa Rica in 2021 at the age of 54.
I burned the boats!

Not going to pretend that it has been all rainbows and butterflies – it’s been a crazy, wild journey.
Often I said Pura f**king Vida!

An endless array of β€˜firsts’.

A lot of major life stuff has happened this year back home (to which I did return of course!)
My daughter Michaela and Alex’s wedding (best wedding ever) πŸ’’πŸ‘°β€β™€οΈ
My youngest daughter’s boyfriend suffered a Traumatic Brain Injury (Bill (and Briana) are doing so well) πŸ₯β€οΈβ€πŸ©Ήβ›‘β€οΈβ€πŸ©Ήβ€οΈβ€πŸ©Ήβ€οΈπŸ™
Getting a tattoo that reads: β€œLife is an Adventure”πŸ€ͺ
and so much more….
Here’s what I learned living in Costa Rica:
🌟patience
🌟a new language
🌟flash lights are more important than food
🌟if you accomplish one task a day – you are a super star
🌟patience – that needed to be said twice!
🌟driving + Costa Rica mountains = weekly near death experiences
🌟it is stupid not to have road side assistance
🌟what true blackness really is
And the most important lesson is this…
πŸ’₯πŸ”₯you are never too old to start living the life you dream
and that Life truly is an Adventure
