haha.

i am still alive. yes, so much better than alive. i'm living life to the fullest and sometimes it's hard and sometimes it's fun, but every moment is beautiful.

i have so much to say. i have seen and smelled and touched and heard and tasted so many things that i want to share. being the perfectionist that i am, it's hard to condense each of these experiences into small summaries, and it doesn't even seem fair to try and do that...but i still want to try. so expect more when i land back on american soil.

i'm in cape town at the moment and it's hard to believe home is next week. next week. so many people ask me what's next...my answer?

i have no idea and couldn't be more excited.
