We have had a fantastic time here in Esteli, Nicaragua experiencing unforgettable moments and creating strong bonds with the locals and with each other. We also experienced different foods and learned very quickly that beans and rice are a very popular meal-and by popular I mean every day.
Over the course of the days here in Nicaragua we got to Live like a Local, Work like a Local, Teach English, experience poverty, and learn how to make a difference. My favorite day here was Live like a Local because of one little ray of sunshine: Ashley. My partner Mia and I were “living” in a house with Ashley & her family and she had so much bubbling energy inside of her that she lit up the whole room. She was so positive making the best of her situation and never seemed to stop smiling. She has impacted me greatly, forcing myself to rethink about life and to just be grateful for even the little things.
As you listen to your glimpser talking about their experience here in Nicaragua, I challenge you to follow in their footsteps and try to make a positive impact yourself in your community.
With this being the last blog for the Esteli 1 Group, I would like to thank Global Glimpse for this amazing opportunity and Melisa, Oji, Belkis, and Christa as this trip would not have been possible without them.
Adios and don’t forget to pick us up! (please)
