Day 3: Taking a Detour in Journey

From the original post on Koffeemocha.

A MOMENT TO CONSIDER

A deliberate detour from Salt Lake City toward Jackson and Yellowstone recalls Kefei's departure from structural engineering for a new career in Silicon Valley. He describes that earlier change as a difficult reset after years of specialized education and practice.

Grand Teton scenery and the less welcome company of mosquitoes keep the reflection grounded in travel. Choosing a different route becomes a way to examine uncertainty, persistence, and opportunities that a more direct path might have missed.

A reading note on the published post. The complete piece, photographs, and conversation are on Koffeemocha.
