What I've learned

In just a few short days, I will be heading back to my home. To say the least, I am beyond excited. Even though my last few days in Mesa are filled with long boarding dates, day trips, and hikes, my mind cannot help but reflect on my past semester. I've learned so much in the past four months it's felt like five years. I love my new life in Colorado and I am grateful for all I've learned in that short amount of time. A feeling of excitement is all I feel when I look forward at my uncharted life. Here is a video I made of my first semester and a few life lessons my good friends and I have learned.
