I'm so sorry to hear about your loss @dfinney and that you had to find out in a rather brutal way.
It's amazing how the short amount of time you spent with Carl so many decades ago forged into such a special bond, especially considering the physical distance. May he rest in peace.
❤️
Thank you so much for your kind words. 🩷
I think this is the thing I love most about travel. It can bring people from all over the world, who have different professions, socio economic status, educationn levels & cultures together in a way where none of those things matter. You are all equals on an adventure learning about a new place, about yourself and about each other.
While I haven’t met most of the families of these people I traveled with 25 years ago, and we don’t share the day to day interactions… we were together all day, every day having a grand adventure. We got to know one another’s purest cores. So now whenever our travels overlap, no matter where we are in the world we all seek each other out. I really love them all so much and consider them some of my closest friends.
