I really don’t know where to begin. I can’t believe today is our last day, it seems like just yesterday we arrived at the Hotel Chaco. This trip has honestly been one of the most amazing trips I’ve had, and I had such a great time with every single LSP student. Last night was our final goodbye, or despedida, at Santa Ana. Although there was great music and food, i couldn’t help but feel extremely sad and upset. It’s so hard to suddenly leave the friends you have made. The people in Santa Ana are the greatest, most caring, and hard working people I have ever met in my entire life, and I know I will never forget them. Our host families from Colegio San Jose were so great to us, it was crazy how comfortable I felt with every single one of them, they were so sweet and gracious. Clara, my host girl from San Jose, made me feel so comfortable and at home. I felt like her family was my family. I will definitely miss everyone so much, and I’m really in shock that its over.
