So...Canada eh?

As I crossed back into California the clouds lifted, and I was able to unroll my window for the first time in a few weeks. All in all it was 4200 miles and change thru Utah , Colorado , Idaho , Oregon , Washington , and good old British Colombia. A lot happened in that time and I feel like a different person than when I left. The trip was justified because I was attending a selection camp for an expedition that will eventually go from the South Pole to the North Pole. There were 30 of us in all, and together we chose an international team of 7 for the journey. Although I was not chosen, the trip and its challenges- both emotionally and physically- were well worth it. I came away with a new understanding of what I am capable of as well as learning the importance of listening to my body. It’s all about balance and the more I learn, the more I realize how much room there is for growth. I saw some great people along the way and was reminded how lucky I am to know so many amazing people.
