Árboles, escuela, viajes y más...

Tree planting! We headed to Zaida's house this weekend to become one with the tierra and plant some trees. It was a great time, between exploring the 'bosque misterioso', hacking at the ground with machetes, planting our little arboles and naming them appropriately. Now if only we could get paid through the Pagos de Servicios ambientales program. A little cash for carbon sequestration never hurts...

Escuela: It's the final days. School is so close to being over I can almost taste it... Just one final push to get through the upcoming week and a half of finals and I will be carefree in Osa and Nicaragua. I will be kind of sad when my semester at UCR ends though. Parts of it have been ridiculously challenging- but I really have enjoyed the whole experience.

That's all that is going on for now. The other day my family and I sat around reading spanigh riddles out of a book for a good hour- and telling jokes adn such. I literally had tears in my eyes from all the laughing. Other than that its just school, homework, and trying to squeeze in as much quality time with friends and family as I possibly can. More exciting updates coming soon!
