I’ve been recovering very nicely from my ankle surgery and I’m excited about the trips and adventures this year. I am not able to do any walking longer than a mile or do any running, but in about 5 to 6 months I will be hiking again and can’t wait to explore beautiful scenery. Currently I’m recovering from an unexpected ingrown toe nail which has set me back from snowboarding for another couples weeks but soon enough I will be riding the bunny slopes of MT Hood ( next year I will be able to go down the mountain in full force).

In less than a month, I will be enjoying the beautiful island of Maui. I have found many activities to do that don’t involve hiking or running. I will drive the road to Hana, which has amazing falls and most of them are near the road and will be easy for me to see. Surfing in Lahaina, snorkeling, and a helicopter ride. I recently purchased a waterproof camera, so expect so underwater photos from my snorkeling adventures!
Later on in the summer, I do plan to travel to Ireland with my best friend. Ireland will be an adventure because of its beautiful greenery, rich culture, and history. I hope to be able to see some castles (maybe get to stay in one).

There may be some other mini trips throughout the year, but Maui and Ireland will be the big ones. I hope the New Year brings me back to normal. It’s been rough not being able to go hiking, camping, traveling, and other fun things. I am very glad that my ankle is healing nicely and that I don’t have to have more surgery. Now it’s time to make up for lost time. New and exciting travels, here I come!
