Title: A Viking in the Cloud Forest - Monteverde, Costa Rica
Date: 2019
Description: While on a small weekend trip, I had the chance to visit the Cloud forests of Monteverde. This is a really special place because there are not many cloud forests left in the world today. I am grateful that I got the chance to see this one, especially from the hanging bridges above the canopy. I am proud as a Viking to support the environment, even in other countries.

Title: Great Buddha of Kamakura
Date: 2019-07-13
Description: Japan. The photo is of the Great Buddha of Kamakura. Professor Tomasi took us to see some of the ancient temples of Kamakura some dating as far back as the 1200s. I took this photo before I saw the full temple. The buddha towers over the whole mountain watching anyone who gets close enough to approach. Intimidating but also inspiring.
