Connect What national park do you dream of visiting?

I dream of exploring the many National Parks of the Southwest United States: Big Bend, Zion, Death Valley , and Yosemite. I yearn to be under the stars, listening to bird song and and coyote calls soaking in mineral hot springs, then, waking up to go rafting or boating. If I had to choose one it would be Big Bend National Park in Texas as it has all these things.

What has been your favorite adventure experience?

RV Travels in 2013 took me to the desert. Where I discovered an off the grid village with a mix of weirdos,retirees,artists, & wannabe anarchists. Their gritty simpler life kept me rooted there fascinated. I vowed never to leave. Then I was assaulted by crazy person name Ray who wanted my campsite. A year later, I went back & lived it again! Then a flash flood came. & destroyed my home. So, I left for good . These experiences taught me both strength and resiliency. " I am Willow. "

What would you do with $10,000?

If I were to win this competition, I would use the $10,000 to subsidize a humanitarian journey. I would use it to live frugally while traveling and volunteering for humanitarian organizations . Although, a brain injury in 2021 sidelined me from being a nurse, the desire to serve humanity remains strong within me. For this competition I will be rising above my current physical disabilities and soaring to new heights while serving mankind. A vote for me is a vote for humanity.🌐
