Why we chose Pearl'd Moments
The word pearl came to mind for us because it metaphorically represents our motivation for this trip. The clams harsh outward appearance looks rough and lifeless, however inside lies one of natures most precious jewels. Each person in this world has their own appearance and story, yet inside we all posses the precious gift of life. It's something every human shares together across our entire world. Each of us are our own clam with different stories, but inside of us we all have reasons in our life that light us up and make us happy.
Moments simply reminds us that this is all we got. All we have is this moment, and then its gone. We have one life to live, so be courageous, be uncomfortable and do what truly matters to you.

We broke our bed.. because of a lizard.
After a few days of being here, I was pleasantly surprised that we did not have any lizards joining us in our room.. But that didn't last long. Last night we had a friendly little gecko waiting for us on our wall, when we came into our room to go to bed. My month in Costa Rica had conditioned me for this, as we usually had 3-5 lovely lizards joining us every night, so I was okay with him in our room. Jeremy on the other hand was not so willing to have this little guy spend the night in our room with us. He was actually losing his mind over it. Determined to either catch the lizard, kill the lizard, or chase the lizard out, he was not going to have this lizard in the room. After trying to explain to him that none of the 3 options were possibly since they can run so fast, and promising him that the lizard would not come off the walls, we compromised that we would pull our bed away from the wall, and I sleep on the side closest to the wall.. Well, a simple tug on the bed, and the bed completely fell apart! Haha! We had to pull the entire thing apart and put it together piece by piece. We came to discover that the bed screws were missing, metal brackets broken, and the bed was only placed together by a mere balancing act. So were reassembled it the best we could, gave Jeremy a flashlight that he could take to bed for safety, and we tried to head to sleep. The lizard's call sound, I'm sure forced Jer to sleep with one eye open, but we eventually got some sleep.. Only to wake up to another different lizard in our bathroom... Poor guy. -Kendal
