I start my morning early. Little details like this makes me pretty proud of myself, because there’s usually a 2 a.m. bedtime for me. I’m a natural night owl and used to reporting on the Night Team. But it feels so good getting up early, watching the fresh, bright light hit the windows. It’s when Costa Rica comes...
I feel optimistic. The time away is helping, healing. I’m so much more comfortable with being alone and this is a good thing. I hit the road again with a four hour drive ahead of me; the route slowing taking me back to San Jose — Costa Rica’s capital city. Of course, navigating through dirt roads, it’ll take longer than...
