EIL Intercultural Learning

Hi everybody! I'm back from Argentina about 3 weeks now and I'm already finding it hard to believe that I was really there! It turns out coming home is almost as hard as leaving in the first place. I'll tell you all a bit about my last few days in Chilecito, the journey home and what its like to be home!

We cycle to the project, but walk most of the way back because its uphill and steep! A few of the boys have taken to "helping us with the bikes" ie. cycling for about fifteen minutes on the way home. They really enjoy it so its become a bit of of a routine!

Greetings from Argentina, where World Cup disappointment has slightly dampened the mood here in Chilecito!! Argentina´s 4-nil defeat by Germany has not upset me too much after an incredible first week and a bit here!!

Imagine the excitement of telling somebody who has never been on an aeroplane that their first flight will be to Japan, Ecuador or Mexico.  Thanks to the EIL Travel Awards I have been able to do this a few times.
