Guys, I love whale sharks. Literally, I could just look at one for hours. When I visited them in Georgia back in December, that's literally all I did. I sat in front of their tank and just watched. Something about them makes me feel so wonderful and yet so small that I could cry. Have you ever felt that? I just watch this video over and over.

P.S. Go fullscreen.



 

P.S. Would you make me very very happy and take my survey? I promise, it’s super short, 9 questions. And most of the questions are multiple choice, a few you have to fill in a word. I will love you forever!

Dreaming of...Costa Rica

A couple days ago, I shared with you all that I was struggling to decide on a destination--the struggle continues. Last time, I considered Iceland (which is still very much on the list). Today, let's consider a vastly different but equally awesome possibility: Costa Rica.
