"Fer de Lance Viper" by Renny, 19 | Costa Rica

The fer de lance is the most deadly snake in Costa Rica. We stumbled across several since their favorite resting spot seems to be in the middle of walking trails.

About Renny: "My name is Renny. I am from Colby, WI. Birds that fly all the way from Wisconsin down to Costa Rica face extreme challenges and in my life, I feel like I can relate because I face those challenges as well. Northwest Passage helped me realize that everything can always be better. I have all these opportunities and ways to fix myself so deep down I feel really happy. One of my favorite quotes is, “You need to love yourself before you can love someone.” My journey, my challenge, is for self-acceptance and being able to accept myself fully is a lifelong goal."
