“Welcome to your home above the clouds,” read a note left on the bed from the hotel manager. I finally made it. It was the eco-lodge of my dreams, 4,000+ feet above sea level. It took four hours to navigate through all the green terrain of the Andes mountains, windy roads that just kept going around and around. When I finally arrived, I was speechless and couldn’t fully articulate what I felt that the rainforest evoked in me. It's spirit had taken me and I surrendered.
