Dream Trip 2009

Great Travel Moment

This photo was taken of me as I was walking along the train tracks of the famous ?Tren A Los Nubes? outside of Salta, Argentina. At this point we had just stopped the car from driving with a European couple who did not speak English, a tour guide that was translating in three languages and a friend of mine through the rickety streets surrounded by beautiful mountains. This moment (on the tracks) was very important to me because it represented a moment in my life that I felt completely free and alive. The day was just beginning, and I myself was very open to any situation or experience that was about to come my way. The sun was warm and shining directly on my back, and the air felt so clean, but a bit constrained because of the altitude. This was a travel moment that I will never forget or be able to replicate.
