Wrapped in the sounds of the rainforest and the quiet rhythm of breath, I sat barefoot on the veranda, treating one last little one on a blanket laid gently over the earth.
Today marks the end of my time with the Bribri community in Costa Rica — a place where modern medicine and ancestral wisdom coexist in silence, and where each child reminded me why I do what I do.
There were no polished clinics, no diagnostic charts — only presence, respect, and deep listening.
And somehow, that was more than enough.
I leave this mission changed — softer, stronger, and deeply grateful.
Grateful for the trust, the smiles, the unspoken understanding.
Grateful for the hands that welcomed mine.
Pura vida, always.
With love, from the jungle 🌿
