The journey is never ending. There’s always gonna be growth, improvement, adversity; you just gotta take it all in and do what’s right, continue to grow, continue to live in the moment.
Antonio Brown
It’s all about living the moment. My travels in 2018 has changed somewhat. Lately I’m not scrambling out to go somewhere just to travel. A lot of my travels has been work related and generous invitations. I had a few of my personal ones in between. Maybe I’m just enjoying my time in the city while teaching yoga and honing some other skills. One thing for sure though, all of my travels in 2018 were fantastic. A lot of places I’ve returned to and some new ones as well. Made more special with the company I had the pleasure of traveling with. To sum up the year I made a short 3-minute video I hope you guys enjoy.
