Follow the Journey

This entire trip has been filled with fun and exciting memories that I will forever carry throughout my life and of course, this wouldn’t have been possible if it were not for the people in my life that helped me get here. I would like to take the time to give thanks and show appreciation to everyone who has helped me get to where I am today. For starters, I want to thank God for keeping me alive during the trek! I got ill after the first day and felt horrible for a few days after. Aside from that, I want to spread the love to my parents and older sister Gaby for supporting and giving me advice before starting this journey. Shout out to the entire Future Connect team at PCC for their wilingness to help! I want to give special recognition to Jose Esparza for putting in a good word for me at Carpe Mundi. He’s a busy man and even though he has other students to help and papers to grade, he took the time to help me get into this program. Without his help I’m not sure if I would be here, so shout out to my boy Jose! Furthermore, I’m not sure how often Carpe Diem HQ receives thanks from the students, but thank you guys for all your hard work behind closed doors, without your efforts I wouldn’t be part of this cohort. That is all……I’m kidding, how could I forget to give thanks to Hansell! She’s an amazing person who helped prepare all of us at Carpe Mundi. Having conversations with her helped me get an idea of what expect in Central America (I have to admit it was a bit hard to accept that not many people in Central America eat spicy foods). The journey that I was so anxious to start is now coming to an end. Thanks to everyone who made this experience possible!
