With this, my program co hart and I are going to Nicaragua from April 7-14th and I cannot be more excited. During class tonight we were asked to journal about our thoughts pre-trip. I decided to focus on the question of why I am going on this trip?
For once I am embarking on an International trip to just learn- learn to understand the people, the culture and try to grasp the language even more! I am going to see the beautiful difference and similarities that make us all unique and different.
For once I am traveling for an opportunity to better not just who I AM as a person but to become a better teacher. I am leaving my opinions out for once and opening my ears towards the stories, sounds and thoughts of the people and the country!
Oh excitement is taking over my body and my mind to really just learn and get enlightened about the past and current Nicaraguan culture and attitudes of the country. To learn from the people that really know is such an organism idea, and one that I cannot wait to embark on.
Adios amigos!
