Lifetime Experience!!!!

My global glimpse trip to Costa Rica was really a life changing and unforgettable moment. This experience really change my perspective on the world. My memorable moment will either be Community day where we spent a whole day with a local family. Spending time with them and participating in cultural activities also helped me appreciate the strength and traditions of the people we met. My other memorable moment was our CAP days, where we spent our time to paint and plaster the wall of Santa Rosa School. It was really amazing to work alongside my peers that I grew stronger friendships with over the course of these 2 weeks. Also knowing that we are making a small but meaningful difference. To add on the overall mix of structured activities and free time throughout the course of this trip allowed my group to get to know each other better, and nightly reflections gave us the chance to really think about what we were learning. Our Global Glimpse Leaders and Program Coordinators were super supportive, helping us step up as leaders and face any challenges that came our way. By the end of the trip, I had a much better understanding of what it means to be a global citizen and realized how important it is to take action, even in small ways, to make a positive impact.
