Warm Communities

Posted on March 6, 2022March 10, 2022 by Haley Wilbanks in Guatemala 2021-22

By Ali Kaynar I am from Ankara, Turkey. It’s not too big of a town, not too small, and I’ve lived there my whole life. When I think of my hometown, I think first about how everyone is there is close.

A NOT NORMAL DAY

Posted on March 5, 2022March 5, 2022 by Aaron in Guatemala 2021-22

By Izzy Kiland Today we woke up to a delicious breakfast - the breakfast consisted of eggs, fruit, and a variety of bread and pastries. After eating, everyone came to gather for our daily meeting.  In a span of 1-2 hours we had several positive Covid tests.

GRASPING THE IMPACT OF TOURISM

Posted on March 5, 2022 by Aaron in Guatemala 2021-22

By Becca Cook Tourism, travel for pleasure or business; also the theory and practice of touring, the business of attracting, accommodating, and entertaining tourists, and the business of operating tours.  Before going on this trip I had no real prior knowledge of this concept, as I don’t travel often. Throughout the duration of my time … Continue reading GRASPING THE IMPACT OF TOURISM →

Finding Myself Through Connections

Posted on March 4, 2022March 5, 2022 by Aaron in Guatemala 2021-22

By Maggie Lancaster Social isolation is a concept I understand through experience. I know how it feels to not really fit in, and I sometimes feel a sense of disconnection from large groups. Before going on this trip, I was worried about feeling disconnected from the group because I didn’t really know anyone. Usually, I … Continue reading Finding Myself Through Connections →

Leadership Lessons

Posted on March 3, 2022March 10, 2022 by Haley Wilbanks in Guatemala 2021-22

By Mahaan Govender I woke up outside on the floor to the sound of Bo snoring blissfully. A dark bluish sky above me was filled with stars. I shuffled my arms out of my sleeping bag and checked the time - it was 5:17am, an hour before the sunrise, which was when we all decided … Continue reading Leadership Lessons →

Settling In and Learning More

Posted on February 28, 2022March 10, 2022 by Haley Wilbanks in Guatemala 2021-22

By Emilie Janzen On our third day in Guatemala, we woke up with people slowly trickling out of the buildings and emerging into the morning light. As conversations about dreams and how people slept slowly faded, we got ready for the day. Once everyone was ready, we did our daily count-off before heading to the … Continue reading Settling In and Learning More →

What It’s All About

Posted on February 28, 2022March 10, 2022 by Haley Wilbanks in Guatemala 2021-22

By Erin Stoik It’s only been two days, but I already feel like my eyes are opening a lot. In the beginning, I felt like we were doing the same thing as everyone else. When we first pulled into downtown Antigua, they had those big colorful shirts hanging from the stands, and I thought “Oh … Continue reading What It’s All About →
