WRAPPING UP 2020

PC. Adrienne Waters

Well, we all know this was a year of change and adapting to chaos. A global pandemic? where did this one come from. . .

With everything that happened this year Id still say this was another ‘best year of my life’.

Arriving in Tokyo jan 1st followed by the trip of a lifetime living in Northern Japan for four months. Snowboarding, powder chasing, photo shooting, Onsen soaking, ramen slurping, and local Hokkaido beer drinking, an everyday occurrence while living In Japan, I truly couldn’t lie and say I wasn’t having the time of my life at the beginning of this year. Japan this year changed my outlook, what a very special place to be.

In April due to the chaos of the world and financial insecurities because of the unknown I decided to come back and spend some time-8 months precisely-living back In my home town. I must say Im happy to have worked thru a bit of attitude adjustment towards that place and what it means to me. I very much enjoyed catching up with my friends, and making new memories together. I am thankful for the time spent In my hometown and some of my best friends staying in touch no matter how much time goes between visits.

Finishing up 2020 Im thankful more than ever for diversity. To be able to experience culture shock powerful enough that your whole perspective of life changes. I am thankful for my passport privileges, to have the ability to travel and see life from a different perspective. My passion for life has grown more than ever because of travel, and I feel as if my potential to experience life to the fullest has just begun. I am looking forward to enjoying every bit of this year ahead of me and diving deeper into life with the time I have left living.

Sending love and peace into the universe.
