Dear Mom from Abroad

Three years ago I moved out, not just out of the house but out of the state. You may have joked about finally being able to kick me out and send me off to school, but we all know you’re a professional worrier. How did you feel when I told you I was moving to South America for a year?

Regrets and Happiness

As my program comes down to the last few days, the fact that I'm leaving and I probably won't see these people for a long while is really getting to me. It feels as if I just met these people yesterday and I still have so many things to do and memories to make. Although I am extremely happy with everything I've done during my stay here in Nantes, I do have a few regrets. Both will come in the form of advice for anyone else in this program in the future.

Monkeying Around Ecuador

I'm just going to talk about the experiences from these photos in order of least exciting to most exciting!

For a field trip in my Ecuadorian art class, we took a day trip back to Lake Quilotoa by tiny school bus. The trip was long and a little cramped,  but still the lake is a beautiful thing to see every time. We had some more time to walk around the top rather than walking down to the shore. We're still not completely sure why we went because we didn't end up seeing much art, but I guess the lake was inspirational.
