and when you're in your twenties. i hope you buy a plane ticket to paris. i hope you get lost wandering all of the streets. i hope you travel the world and read lots of new books. i hope you have interesting conversations over warm cups of tea. i hope you drink out of mason jars while dancing barefoot in the grass. i hope you have a water fight in central park. set goals and change them. quit your day job.

i hope you don't do any of these things or that you do them all.

write a book. change your mind. start new friendships and let go of the ones that you need to. say goodbye to all of the things that have kept you stagnant and vow to keep moving forward.

katie.

inti  wara yassi, in bolivia, is solely generated by volunteers and donation, which works to rehabilitate and care for animals that are rescued from captivity. katie is one of the jaguars that lives at inti wara yassi. a friend of mine volunteered with katie while he was there, and asked me to paint her on his surfboard.

fall in love with an animal...
