The Last Hooray

Shelly and me at our last night blowout

On Thursday night, my group celebrated the end of our program and the end of our time together. I am once more excited to come home and, at the same time, sad to see my time here end. I have made many new and wonderful friends in Costa Rica and I am sure that this will not be the last that I see of them. But for now, I am singularly focused on finishing up my last few months of school so I can begin my next adventure, whatever form that may ultimately take. To everyone that has supported me and encouraged me along the way, be you in Europe, the US, Brazil, or C.R. Thank you. And to Emily, Paul, Shelley, Max, Zack, the Kristens, Cary, and the rest of the crew, a special thanks for helping to make this experience one that I will never forget!
