live in the tropics
2 years ago
my parents grew up in Puerto Rico. My sisters and i visit regularly and we love it. it is like a spiritual cleansing to be surrounded by your people and breath the air and sleep in a climate that you are genetically designed for. But with the numerous trips that i have made i find myself unfulfilled. I feel more fulfilled by the stories my mother has told me about growing up on the islands. along with the small conveniences that i realize while visiting. picking fresh mangoes and quenepas in your back yard. chasing lizards, walking to the nearest beach, the smell of sugar cane and cafe. i love it
