So the time has come to depart from my amazing family and friends of Costa Rica. Estoy muy triste (I am very sad). I have become very familiar and apart of Costa Rica and wish there was more time here. The final three days at school were very tough watching people become aware of the fact that us gringas were no longer goes to be showing our smiling faces.
The number one question I got was "When are you coming back?" The answer is unknown but the want is soon!! Everyone has offered their home to me when I come back and I would love to take them up on that offer.
The hardest part about leaving was realizing that I would not have the Pura Vida life style anymore and the opportunity to see the ones I grew to LOVE everyday! I am very much missing them and wish they could travel to the states to see how our culture is.
Tuesday was the start of the festivities for us. The school had been bringing money in the previous week and we had overhead through our new knowledge of Spanish that there was going to be a assembly for us. In between classes they had a break where the English teachers had presented us gifts that the school had bought us. This really made our day and very thoughtful of the school.
After school my mom invited over all the English teachers to our house and we had a party. It was a lot of fun and I will never forget it! Wednesday was the hardest day because I had to say goodbye to my family! They have been nothing but helpful and nice to me and the rest of the girls. I was being picked up at school so I had one more time to say goodbye to everyone. I did not want to go but unfortunately I had to. I had an amazing experience and I wish I had more time there.
God Bless Costa Rica!!!
