Mountain Biking

[Vacations]

Costa Rica

Every three to five years our entire family makes plans to visit our home country costa Rica and visit the family that live there. It’s really great to have a home to go to away from the U.S and reset from the everyday routine of school and a full time job.

Hawaii

My wife and I, a few years ago took a trip to Maui, Hawaii. The reason for our trip is that I have never in my 25 plus years have never taken a trip there.
