Our team of six together
with our team leader Pam, have come from many places within the United States
to Costa Rica. Some of our journeys here were easier than others. But we are
all ready to engage in a Global Volunteer Adventure.
Our trip from Alajuela
to Santa Elena is a sensory experience. Our trip along the Pan American Highway
lets us absorb the lush green landscape. Entering the Santa Elena Cloud Reserve
is an "Ah Ha" moment with cameras snapping as we watch the wispy
strands of clouds begin to engulf the valley below.
Before dinner at the
Mar-Inn, we discuss our individual reasons for coming here to the Santa Elena
community. Our reasons are varied, but together we decided that we want to make
a positive impact, we want to help, and we want some personal enjoyment.
After dinner prepared by
Zelmira and served by Geovanny, we had two special
guests--Walter and Wendy from the Reserve and the local high school. We are set
to begin our projects.
