    I spent about 4 months out of the year at my grandparents home in the high Sierras of México. My mom made sure to take me out of school early with a huge packet of homework lol. She wanted to spend every single second available with her parents. Looking back at that, I could not have asked for a happier childhood. The amount of freedom to explore and play only enhanced my creativity and connection to nature. Made me "rough around the edges" hence prepared me for life. As a young adult I hated going there because there was nothing to do, bored out of my mind. But as I got older I realized how fkn lucky I am. The home is still in my family, now a "vacation" home for us and my cousins etc. I still go there every so many years when I have a chance. It truly is home if there ever was one. :) <3
