Tango List Final
So the trip is over. There are some things I did not manage to do. I never sent the post cards that I wrote, I did not get to visit every city in Argentina, I missed going to Uruguay, I still have not skydived (do to financial reasons). With everything I missed I learned a lot along the way. Setting goals is good. Writing about the things you do makes them that much better. The most important lesson I have gained from everything is that you must keep the sense of adventure alive in yourself. No one is going to take you out there you have to get out there and do it yourself. That is what makes a place yours. For now on I have a new perspective that I am going to take with me to New York. I'm going to approach every place like I did Argentina - with an adventure's spirit. After all what makes an adventure is not what you do - it is the attitude you approach it with. Happy Trails!
Ok...back to the real world
So I'm back in the United States. The past couple of days I have been hanging out with my cousin in Houston, TX. I have been awaiting word on how I'm going to get money and where I go from here. Everything is working out well. Today I found out that I will start a job in New York about 40 minutes north of the city. I'm really excited about this new possibility. I think it comes at a perfect time for me, a perfect time of my life and right after a really great experience. I will be working with a life long friend and mentor and I'm sure we will do great things together. I can only imagine the places I will go. Speaking with him today he already has lectures planned in Chicago, West point, and New York City. I would love to go camping in the spring in upstate New York, Canada, on the Coast. If anyone is in or around New York consider this an invitation to visit for a couple of day. Just let me know a couple of days in advance so I can clean the place up ;)
