As I approach my seven-year anniversary in Puerto Rico, I am reminded of how disoriented I was when I first arrived. When asked what brought me to PR, one of my glib responses was that the Universe wanted me to learn patience. As it turns out, I didn’t want to truly learn- but I certainly did, slowly at times, but surely nonetheless. I am still far from patient, but I walk towards that goal everyday- sometimes just one little baby step. Progress, not perfection.
My dear friends, fellow travelers, and I are embarking on a journey of discovery- we aim to unpack and explain how we made our way on this beautiful yet deceptively complex island. We strive to help us all navigate this land with kindness, insight, and compassion.
