I want to say first and foremost that I truly hope that these journals, field notes, albums, and logbooks have inspired you to go out and explore the world. Spain is a beautiful and unique place, but you do not have to fly across the Atlantic to get to know different and exciting places. The United States is a vast and extremely diverse country, full of people from all over the world, each with their own unique story. Our country is also full of national parks, environments and ecosystems of all kinds, including some of the most dazzling landscapes in the world. I hope you feel inspired to explore the parts of our planet beyond your backyard and background. If you feel inspired to go even further and study or live in a different country altogether, then even better! Foreign travel may seem like a scary proposition, at first, but it is worth it, I promise!
Secondly, I really hope that you have found my content interesting and engaging. It has been a blessing to be able to share with you my adventures of living in and around Santiago, Spain, as well as in other parts of Europe. By writing about these experiences and looking back at my pictures, I have been able to reflect more profoundly on how these events have shaped my life abroad.
