"The Sunflower"
As I've been reading this book, The Sunflower I've really been contemplating my life right now. In the book the two main characters are in Peru volunteering and going on many adventures. They just caught and held a few crocodiles and have to deal with jaguars and pumas. (never run away from them. they'll chase. just back off slowly maintaining dominate eye contact) This girl is so brave to get away from regular life and live for two weeks in the wilderness as many Amazon tribes do. I'm proud of her, but I just get scared because I don't think I would be able to survive if it were me in her place. I've considered doing volunteer work in Croatia for bears to keep them alive. But now that I have read this story about doing service in a foreign country, I don't think I would be okay. I would panic about every little thing, especially if it's possible to die. But I recommend you all to read it. It's a good book.
