Cartagena, Colombia

My experience in Colombia has been nothing short of amazing. I find that as the weeks go by I am learning so much about this diverse country that I would never have expected. The two week orientation program in Bogota was a great way to get adjusted to a new country while also preparing me to teach English as a foreign language. Once at my placement site in Cartagena I have continued to meet nothing but warm and welcoming people. The other teachers at our SENA site are wonderful as well and I love my students. Having never taught English in the states or abroad I had no idea what I was getting into, but I am so thankful I decided to put my life on hold and go on this adventure. Hopefully the next couple months don't go by to fast!
