Dear Self,
I learned that I have so much more patience than I thought I had. I have discovered more of my strengths and weaknesses and have realized that I can conquer more than I think. Throughout this trip I have grown emotionally, physically and mentally stronger. This country is absolutely beautiful despite some of the negative things we have noticed on our travels. I have plans to travel back here one day like my peers that have also been on this service and study tour trip. I would like to spend more time supporting organizations against human trafficking and abuse such as the WPPC, as well as travel the other side of the country to what we were not able to explore on the duration of our travels. Though some things have been disappointing on the trip, I have finally accepted to “expect the unexpected”.
