Day 2
Massage, Beach & The Rocks
Best deep tissue massage of my life. Fresh haircut. Condado Beach — swimming, stretches, and a scrape that drew blood. Learning to heed warnings.
Day 5
North Coast & The Drive Home
Left Boquerón heading back to San Juan via the northern route. Stopped at a beach near Arecibo for a car nap. Hours of coastline. Back to the capital by evening.
Puerto Rico Solo — 8 Days of Discovery
Eight days alone on the island — San Juan hostels, an El Yunque hike, a southwest-coast road trip, a speeding ticket that scared me into slowing down, and learning to be alone on purpose.
