... of them hadn't really travelled anywhere but Ometepe and just spent their time drinking all day (we're talking beers at 9am EVERY DAY). They hadn't even done much on the island itself. Mine and Dan's dorm room was okay but it was open air, without fans, and close to the party so it was extremely buggy, hot, and noisy. Neither of us got much sleep the three nights we were there.<br><br>Our first full day on the island we all decided to climb Volcan Maderas. We had a really nice guide ...

... thick jungle and many rivers rushing in all directions. The purpose of our trek was to deliver supplies to the villagers of Alto Katsi. In total, there were about ten garbage bags filled with backpacks, clothing, shoes, and other supplies. Each child in the village was given a children's backpack with learning materials. The children were ...

... to local photo copy places and students buy copies of lectures and readings. There are photocopier places EVERYWHERE. Just small little shops with a few copy machines. There's at least like 10 different ones with one square block of the University. For the night life, overall it's very cheap. One night I went out, I paid for a 2 taxi rides, 2 drinks, and an entrance fee into a club. It all ...

Nach einem langen und schweren Abschied von den Jungs und Mädels im Hostel Esperanza und natürlich von Karin, habe ich es dann doch irgendwann geschafft in den Bus nach Costa Rica zu springen. Da ich kein Busticket mehr für den schnelleren und bequemen Tica-Bus bekommen konnte, habe ich erst bis zur Grenze durchgeschlagen und wollte von dort aus mit einem der lokalen Busse nach ...

... 40 minutes later by a commotion of light and yelling in the room. I heard someone say "baula! primera baula !" (baula means leatherback in spanish) and I shot up out of bed, got tangled in my mosquito net and megan and I quickly changed into dark patrol clothes (right in front of Jaikel the teenage research assistant trainee who had run back to wake us, oh well, lucky him haha) and ran out and ran down the beach about 500 meters to where the turtle had emerged ...

... hill to the reception. It is then time to settle down for another night in the car park. 18th- Set off again this morning, the first stop was about 2kms down the road to see the La Paz waterfall from the bottom. This is actually a better view than from the trail. After that we drove around the outskirts of a national Park, the road was very scenic with some tremendous views although that means lots of climbs and drops as we travel. The first section was particularly bad ...

It was nice to be back in Costa Rica. It felt like coming home. Irving left to go back to Panama and I stayed for a few days to be with my Tica family. I sat around catching up and eating Liliam´s home cooking. Said good bye after a few days and made the journey to Panama.

The last day of school and I documented the walk with photos this morning and really enjoyed it. <br><br><br><br> I thought I might have it easy today in class before the final exam but Samuel pushed us into the next level book having us finish in level 11 out of 12. The final exam was an essay I had to write on a social problem that he gave me. I had to use both the ...

... phrase was "Your face makes me sick." Okay, not really but I thought about it because I have had a lot of fun doing similar things in the past. I taught him "Have a good day" to which he wrote out "Gef hey good dei." Phonetically, it sounded pretty good, so if it works for him, great. I spent about thirty minutes talking to him. There is a brand of bread, very popular here, called Bimbo, and I explained ...
