seaside weekend

I spent the last two days in Varna, which is right on the coast of the Black Sea with a dear friend of mine who left Bulgaria to live in Vancouver. It's been peaceful and relaxing, my body has needed sleep and recuperation. It's interesting how tiring swimming a long distance felt, and my back feels great today. I believe every now and then we should challenge our bodies to unexpectedly practice skills we haven't used in a long time. It's a wonderful celebration of being in good shape!

Just jump off the boat and swim!




Going back...
