Mission Complete!

We finally returned to Canada, after our week long trip. With a fresh new perspective on life, particularly here in Canada, I am ready to take on new challenges. What I find interesting about myself during my stay was my ability to quickly adapt to a different culture. I didn't necessarily feel a culture shock, so to speak. There were some differences though. For example, there was no hot water present in the facilities we were living in. So it was like military style showers, jump in then jump out. Also, for food we pretty much stuck to rice and beans for most lunches and dinners. A highlight for me was the incredibly supported staff, who kept our bellies full as we taught the children in the Francisco Javier area of Monti Christi. Finally, there was no air conditioning in our bedrooms, like we are used to having here. I actually had a hard time sleeping, to be honest. They weren't kidding when they mentioned that the roosters were loud. After being there for a while and getting used to the area, I kinda felt like home there. I didn't want to leave. I didn't have to worry about bills, exams, taxes and so on. Now that I've returned home, I'm gonna take whatever I learned over there and implement it here.
