This is my year in review and seriously - travel and people are awesome. They're my two favourite things in the world and this year I didn't jump around as much as I usually do but I traveled way deeper into Nicaragua than I ever have to any other country. So despite not jumping on so many planes, buses or seeing new ponds, I dove way deeper into the one I'm currently in and travel is all about new experiences so I feel extremely lucky.
