I have noticed this thanks to my daughter, she is a little girl and she sees everything with wonder, every flower, every stone, a little insect, everything is incredible in her eyes, it made me reflect that as an adult I am more in a hurry and I don't take the time to pause and appreciate my surroundings.
How are you doing with your travels? Will you be making guides for Bitcoiner nomads? Hey, I just noticed that you are here in Peru and your description of surfing is an activity that I told my husband I wanted to do no matter what this summer. Did you learn to surf with a school here?
I think what you're describing is one of THE master skills of life, honestly. Presence and awareness makes it easier to be grateful for things.
I'm not in Peru at the moment, probably should update my bio. I'll be back there though soon-ish. I've been surfing for some years before I ended up in Peru but that's one of the reasons I moved there. If you're in Lima go down to Playa Makaha any day and you'll have plenty of instructors and rentals to choose from.
Mancora in the north (fly into Talara) is lovely, it's a proper beach town with actual warm water and better waves. Lots of whales up there too this time of year. When I'm back in Peru I'll drop you a line!

Yes, I saw it in your bio, Lima is a great place for surfers, Great, I know all the beaches on the Costa Verde, I've always loved watching people surf and I admire those who do it in winter. Another activity I want to do is paddle boarding at Yuyos beach. Have you ever surfed at Punta Hermosa? The waves there are more aggressive. I would love to go to Mancora, in Peru there are many beautiful places that I want to visit.

Thanks so much for that photo! Brings back a lot of memories, damn. I never made it to Punta Hermosa but I think if / when I move back I might try and set up a base there and see what it's like. I agree Peru has so much to offer!
