I'm looking down on the Selva as I fly over the Amazon, the jungle that has been my home. All I can see is an expanse of green canopy to where it meets the horizon. I don't think I've ever been this sad leaving somewhere. It's not like I'm breaking into tears, but I'm just going to miss it here, a lot.

It feels like coming here was something that was always destined for me. Like I was meant to come and integrate myself with nature in the jungle. Now, I have accomplished that task.

The most encouraging thing I'm taking away from all this is knowing I always have a home here. It has been more powerful than I could have imagined. I know at any time I can come here unannounced and find friends, food, and places to stay. I am welcome here, always.

Gracias para selva

Gracias para todo

Mucho amores

I'm going to miss you.

I'm going to miss you
