The mountain border

I love who I am when I am in the Dominican Republic. It is an emotional roller coaster and my mind races all the time. However, when we are in this little mountain town on the border between the DR and Haiti, I always feel strangely calm, collected, and ready to take on the world. The layers of beautiful, vast mountain ranges immediately lift the weight I had been feeling. This walk across the boarder was just what I needed after an emotionally taxing, heavy-on-the-heart day in Los Pinos.

Imed DR Trip

I'm back from an amazing week in the Dominican Republic. Putting all that work into organizing and coordinating the trip was well worth it. It was so cool it was to be able to watch people falling in love with this culture as I did and continue to do. Watching the changes in each and every girl on the team and knowing I played a big part in it was an indescribable feeling. I believe that that is what life is all about, touching as many lives as you can. Starting these Imed trips is one of the best things I have done with my life. I've created experiences for people that they wouldn't have experienced without my piece in the puzzle. It's a very content feeling. It's also exciting to think about what I can do in the future. The possibilities are endless.
