Walking on the beach this morning, a wave of emotions came over me. After wading for a while in the chilly Atlantic, I walked alone on the beach. It was eerily deserted and a thick, gray fog had blanketed everything. Peering 10 meters to the left, not a soul was to been seen. Behind and right were also empty of presence. Only ocean, to my right, torrent waves, crashing breaks and salty sprays were to be smelled, seen and felt. It was cool and tranquil. Being in this place at this time on this day was like being inside your mind, only it was outside your realm.

This day, three years ago, I crouched before CNN en español for hours in the lobby of the Quito Marriott, in disbelief and utter confusion.

This day, one year ago, I left my comfortable life of family, friends and love-ones, yet once again, to continue my rebellious job of exploration.

Life changes itself and others quickly; seize every moment and every occasion, for tomorrow all will be new.
