17- Your lips taste to the clouds

The sunny mornings and starry nights of Puerto Viejo offered a contrast to the shadows of her past, but sadness still clung to her heart. In those moments of silence, when the waves whispered secrets and the breeze carried her thoughts, her grandmother's absence became palpable.

Jade (whispering to the wind):

— Grandma, can you feel this new stage of my life? Your departure still hurts me, but I

know that you carry a little piece of my heart with you. —

The hostel, now her temporary home, became the refuge where the reality of her new life

mixed with the imprint of the past. Between conversations with other travelers and sleepless

nights, the search for balance became a constant process.

Jade (reflecting):

Every day is a step forward, but also a look back. Nostalgia does not

disappear so easily. Although Puerto Viejo offered the promise of new beginnings, Jade was faced with the

duality of leaving her old life behind and embracing the uncertainty of the new. The friendly

faces and shared stories at the hostel provided a touch of companionship, but the

shadows of the past still haunted her thoughts.

Jade (with melancholy):

— Change is difficult, but I know it is necessary. Grandma, guide me on this path.

I feel your presence in every corner of Puerto Viejo.

The golden beaches and the vivid colors of the surroundings contrasted with the complexity of

emotions Jade carried with her. Every day, she strove to weave new memories and

experiences, but nostalgia lingered like a soft shadow.

Jade (looking at the horizon):

— Life goes on, but the past always leaves its mark. I hope to find the

peace I seek on this journey. —

Thus, amidst the waves that embraced the coast and the sun that sank into the ocean, Jade

continued her journey in Puerto Viejo, exploring not only the tropical landscape but also

the deeper layers of her own history.

The soft caress of the sun caressed Jade's skin as she walked along the beach in Puerto Viejo. Dressed in a striped bikini that shimmered with the intensity of the blue of the sky, she

blended harmoniously with the vibrant and colorful surroundings of the coast. The waves

played at her feet, leaving the ephemeral mark of her passage on the golden sand.

Every grain of sand, every blade of wind seemed to carry with it the promise of a rebirth.

Jade paused for a moment, closing her eyes to savor the feeling of freedom

that only a tropical beach could offer. The constant whisper of the ocean fused with the

murmur of her thoughts, creating a soft symphony that resonated in her soul. Jade (feeling the sea breeze):

— Here, in this corner of Puerto Viejo, I feel life in every particle around me.

It's like the universe is conspiring to remind me that beauty is

everywhere. —

The reflection of the sun on her bikini created flashes that highlighted each blue tone in her

striped patterns. It was a visual spectacle that merged with the magnificent palette of the

beach, where the intense greens of the vegetation met the deep blue of the

sea.

Jade (admiring the landscape):

— This blue is almost unreal. I lose myself in its immensity, and my bikini blends in with the

fantastic range of this beach. —

Walking toward the shore, Jade submerged herself in the turquoise waters, feeling

how the temperature of the ocean embraced her skin. Each wave that enveloped her seemed to take with it

a little more of the nostalgia that had accompanied her until that moment. Jade (mumbling):

— The ocean always has the power to cleanse the soul. Each wave is like a

reminder that I can let go of what no longer serves. —

Emerging from the water, the sun shone on her skin, creating a luminous halo around her.

The warm sand under her feet, the gentle murmur of the sea and the breeze caressing her face

contributed to that feeling of rebirth.

Jade (smiling):

— Maybe change isn't so scary after all. Here, in this moment,

I find the strength to move forward. —

With her striped bikini glistening on the beach, Jade continued her walk through Puerto Viejo.

Each step was an affirmation of her determination to embrace the present and build a

future full of possibilities. The beach, with its ethereal charm, became the

backdrop for this new stage of her life, where every day was an opportunity to discover

more about herself and the world around her. As Jade strolled along the beach, soaking in the serenity of her surroundings, a few lively young men approached her, handing out colorful flyers. Their laughter and excitement broke the calm of the shore, and they soon found themselves sharing with Jade the news of an upcoming big beach party.

“Hey! Would you like to join the most amazing party coming up? It’s going to be epic!” says a burly boy.

Jade (admiring the landscape):

fantastic range of this beach. —
