Serenity at Sunset

There are places in life where we all find ourselves relaxed, at peace, as well as feeling like all of our worries have vanished. That is how I felt when we climbed up the hills across from Quinta Siempre to watch this beautiful scene. Although it was quite a struggle to reach our destination, with all of the rocks, mud, and twigs that were present, the mini leg workout of walking up; it was definitely worth it. As I watched this beautiful view, along with the lovely background noises of a few species, I felt like nothing at that moment could ruin my relaxation and the stress free state I was in.  In addition, I never had such experiences before where I had the opportunity to view mountains and a beautiful skyline on top a hill. I am very grateful to be given this chance to experience great adventures with amazing people. As I now prepare to go to sleep, I wonder what my next peaceful place will be tomorrow.
