Week 5

Week 5 got here so fast! Some people I know are ready to go home, but I definitely feel like it is not time to leave. The time has gone so quickly, and I am really enjoying my time here and learning a lot. I do wish I could stay a little bit longer. I really like how this experience allows us to learn in the classroom as well as in the real world. I have really noticed that each person is in charge of how much they learn here. If you want to get out and talk to people and learn about the culture, then you will. But if you’re timid about it, you will not learn as much. I believe that I really have learned a lot here. I have been more emotional lately because I am realizing that the streets I have been walking down every day and the sights I have been seeing daily and the things I have experienced here are things that I will probably not see again for a long time, Also, I have grown very close with the people who are on this trip with me, so not it is hard to imagine not seeing them every day and spending so much time together. I am also very sad to leave my host mother, because she has been so wonderful. She always calls me endearing names and tells me every day that she loves having me in her home. I really will miss her.
