Alpacas by Masumi Taguchi

September was my birthday, so for the first time since the pandemic I decided to give myself a mini birthday trip.

As an introvert-learning ambivert (usually I just say introvert, but some of you may get it hehe), I naturally prefer to spend time alone. So was the case for my birthday, especially this year during the COVID-19 pandemic. I decided that this year, I wanted to take myself out on a drive go see what always elates my mind: animals. So I rented a car (with my fear because driving in New York can be scary for me) and headed up north.

The alpaca farm was located in Warwick, NY. The short birthday trip was beyond worth it. This particular farm had over 30 alpacas, some including babies that were born the previous week. They were all calm, curious and quiet. In fact this farm had many other creatures including dogs, cats, chicken, etc. A lovely farm. I got to touch one of them, and let me say, they are SOFT.

I hope to find myself back up in north. That trip calmed my heart, gave me a fresh breath of air and determination.
