Was your 3nd picture taken at Tayrona - Colombia? Spend a night in the hut on the rock in the background back in 2014 after the 5 day hike tot Ciudad Persia.

Great of you that you take the step and follow your dream!!! I was thinking about it for years, specialty after a 1 month solo trip a the Philippines but there was always too much going on to do it. I don't regret it because I try to spend every vacation day I have traveling and I'm proud of all the pasport stamps and memories I collected but still a little bit of jealousy is coming up when I read your post :-)
