Costa Rica Trip Past Review

The course here was specifically focused on three aspects: environment, technology, and society. Keeping these three focuses in mind, everything we did as a group impacted our thoughts and our preconceptions of the country. The greatest understanding of such issues was meat with the ability to have conversations and mingle with the locals. Having traveled to other Latin American countries, I have noticed similarities between the countries, but what I also have noticed is the fact that each country is quite different. This course has allowed me to see what I want in my future plans of teaching abroad. I thought that I would like to stay in Costa Rica for a year and teach English to the local students, but I do not know if Costa Rica is the right country for me. The trip has fortified my wanting to teach abroad, but the country choice is still up in the air. If anyone has the opportunity to go abroad, I highly recommend doing so, and when in the foreign country take as many chances as you can. You never know when you will be able to visit the country again.
