I have left the unforgettable country of Honduras and am now home. I have been on too many trips to count, but this one will forever be a permanent fixture in my mind. It was phenomenal and I was fortunate enough to meet some people that greatly inspired me.

There’s an old quote by George Moore that states “A man travels the world in search of what he needs and returns home to find it”. To each his own—so in his case, that was presumably true. But I have not found that to be so; which is probably why my passion lies in the discovery of the world.

Don’t get me wrong; I do find joy in coming home. There is always that temporary satisfaction of being in a familiar place surrounded by the ones that call you friend. A friend that supports you and encourages you is an irreplaceable gift in life. I wouldn’t want to live without them. But I am not content, nor will I ever be, with the security of being able to find my way home day after day after day.

Adventure seems to be so man-made these days and I feel like I have to seek it with all my might. I have realized on this trip that I don’t need to go on this almighty quest for an adventure. When I try something new, show unexpected kindness, or speak to someone unfamiliar—adventure just seems to find me.

I love the uncertainty of the outcome of life. The unknown of whether my business will succeed or fail is an adventure for me. And I am up to the challenge!! As a matter of fact, I have never been so ready!

So I want to say that I look forward to traveling the world with you. You may say that you can’t afford it; but I say that it is all a matter of priorities. If you are one hundred percent satisfied with your life—then this may not be the trip for you. Because this trip will open your eyes and you will yearn to learn and experience new things.
