We’re Back

Last Day of the Honeymoon

On the last day of our nine-month honeymoon in Cartagena, Colombia

Summer and I got back to the U.S. very early this morning, after a 24-hour journey from Cartagena in Colombia to Portland, Oregon, via Bogota, Miami, and Las Vegas.

The immigration officer at Miami airport peered at the box on our customs form marked ‘countries that you have visited on this trip’, where in very small letters Summer had written: Vietnam, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Australia, French Polynesia, Chile, Argentina, Bolivia, Peru, Colombia.

"That’s enough for a lifetime", he said. "Yes", we lied.

We’ll be spending the next month on the west coast, visiting our family in Oregon and then exploring the Bay Area to see if we might like to live there and so that I can explore some opportunities. If you would like to meet up, please email me.

It is good to be back.
