The last photo of my "365 Days of Photos" project (wasn't sure I was going to make it to the end). This has been quite a year. I've traveled to 10 different countries, surfed in exotic places all over the world, eaten strange things, and have met some incredible people that have become good friends.
I thought it was fitting to end this blog with a picture of my family. My parents have done so much fo me over the years. There's no way that I can possibly repay them. Thank you mom and dad!

This photo was taken by our crazy car driver during a recent trip to El Salvador. My mom is quite the traveler... always planning a trip somewhere. I think I picked up the "travel bug" from her. The lake in the background is the crater of a (non-active) volcano... Laguna de Alegria.

I'm not too sure what I'm going to do with this blog now that I've completed the 365 days. I definitely will keep taking photos. However, I think I need to do a bit of a re-design... Anyone have any suggestions?

By the way, it's also my 30th birthday today... I'm getting old!

My last set of photos from El Salvador. I went for a drive up one of the volcanoes and ended up at this little town of Alegria. It was amazing how much the temperature changed as we got to the top of the volcano... I was actually a bit chilly. Because the temperature was cooler, they were able to grow a much wider variety of flowers. Alegria is a very rustic/old fashioned and it had amazing views of the surrounding countryside. If you're in the area, I recommend getting an AWD vehicle and making a trip to the top.
