Peter Lipinsky, News Editor
Peter Lipinsky (he/him) hiked up Machu Picchu at dusk. Though his family initially embarked on the journey together, halfway up the mountain Lipinsky found that he was the only one willing to finish the hike. When he reached the top, he looked around but could only see white. He couldn’t even see his neon yellow shoe laces.
