We're back in Wilmington! Sort of. Before most of us head off to places not yet known (for some) again. I still cannot believe the trip is over. I had one of the most amazing experiences of my life in San Pedro, and I will never forget the place, its people, or especially Isla Bonita Elementary School. I've talked about all of the above practically non stop since returning home. My family are hopefully spending Christmas in San Pedro, so I'm already excited for that trip!
My mum kept telling me it was going to be such a "bump back to reality" coming home…..so far that hasn't sunk in the way, though I'm sure it will when I'm actually at home in Chapel Hill, filling out job applications and preparing for an interview day on May 12th, next week. Right now I'm saying goodbye to Wilmington (again), and spending lots of time at the barn in between getting final assignments turned in and seeing friends. Some of the Belize cohort, including me, Jordan, Caitlin, Tori, Lauren, and Heather, had lunch at a Mexican Restaurant (haha!) today. Apparently we miss chips and salsa more than we thought! It was nice not getting a strange look when we requested separate cheques though.
Belize will always hold a special place in my heart, and I can't wait to see what the next chapter of my book of life is.
