An early morning road trip found us on Isla de Vieques, a short road trip from San Juan and a rocky ferry trip from Fajardo. Despite its stunning beauty, the island felt almost untouched by tourists. We took a publico, a mix between a taxi and a bus, to the other side of the island to take advantage of more remote beaches. For most of the afternoon, I peered out over my sun-kissed knees at perfectly blue water and a nearly cloudless sky. I had suddenly found myself in the perfection of paradise, completely secluded from anything with any capacity to cause an inkling of stress. We had the entire beach to ourselves: no beach balls, no screaming children, no loud music. Just us, the beach, and the relaxing sound of waves coming in and off the beach. I'm not sure I've ever been more relaxed in my entire life.
