It’s been a week since I’ve been back and I have to say I’m in a little bit of a depression. Don’t get me wrong, it is nice to be back with ice and public bathrooms but I do miss walking past an architectural masterpiece every five minutes. I also already miss everyone in the…

So I am now back in the United States after spending three weeks in Costa Rica on the Avian Biology study abroad there.

It’s day ten! And it’s safe to say I’m having a great time in Costa Rica. We’ve been to San Jose, Ensenada, Monteverde, and now Heliconias. Although some of the hikes have been rigorous and early in the morning, they have definitely all been worth it. Especially today. I saw my first sloth, and it…

(Previously written in the journal I took on my trip) Well, I leave tomorrow morning for Costa Rica, and it’s safe to say that I am beyond excited! Traveling to new places is always an exhilarating experience. I absolutely love learning about other cultures, and I cannot wait to see how the people of Costa…
