Wow Jillian, this is really amazing. What a fantastically written story. Glad to have a fresh perspective on the tourism question. It can certainly be a benefit as long as people are being mindful about it. We do need to connect more as a society. Most Americans are so disconnected with everyone. It’s really sad.
So sorry to hear about all of your struggles but you certainly have the right frame of mind and the resilience to overcome it and soldier on. Very inspiring for me and a lot of others I’m sure. Thanks for sharing this story with us!
