Welcome to a new corner of my blog, “Paths Through the Wild”—a space where nature and the inner world intertwine.

This section is deeply personal, born from my journey of leaving behind the familiar to embrace the unknown. When I first stepped into the lush embrace of Costa Rica’s jungles, I thought I was simply pursuing a life closer to nature. But the truth is, the jungle didn’t just transform my surroundings—it transformed me.

Through its tangled trails, quiet whispers, and unrelenting honesty, the wild has taught me lessons I never expected to learn. It’s shown me resilience in the way plants reclaim life from fallen trees, healing in the slow, steady rhythm of rainforest rains, and connection in the symphony of creatures living in harmony.

But most of all, it’s taught me about myself. Every challenge I’ve faced here—from uprooting my life to starting anew in a foreign land—has brought me closer to understanding who I am, what I value, and what I’m still working to heal.

In this space, I’ll share stories of how the jungle has shaped my journey. These aren’t just tales of adventure or survival, but reflections on personal growth, healing, and the deep connection between humanity and the natural world.

My hope is that these stories resonate with you—whether you’re navigating your own path through life’s wild terrain or simply seeking a deeper connection with the world around you.

Thank you for walking this path with me. Together, let’s explore not just the wonders of the jungle but the wilderness within us all.
