It is a privilege to be facilitating this truly experiential learning opportunity. We are really impressed with the student's openness and willingness to learn all they can while they're here. The week volunteering at the school has enabled them to be risk-takers and teach English lessons, art, music and Canadiana. Our gang has really taken a liking to the warmth of the Costa Rican children and culture.
This afternoon we were invited to a family's house high up in the hills where we learned about their traditional farming, harvesting and food preparation. We shared a delicious assortment of cakes, cookies, traditional dishes, sugar cane tea and strong coffee. We all partook in Spanish Karaoke afterwards. This family's kindness warmed our hearts and our experience with them represents that true cross-cultural connection that brought us here.
