Here are some pictures from my trip to Osa Peninsula with Lyn and Jaguar Man : )
This horse and cart is the only form of transportation on parts of the Osa.
A baby turtle we saved from a crab and put back into the ocean.
Jaguar man leading us in the jungle. Here he is cutting open Caco (chocolate before its roasted) for Lyn and I with his machete.
What an awesome cousin I have!
Our tiki tent we stayed in for 3 nights, right in the forest!!
In front of the little plane I took there and back! I was one of 8 passengers.
Where has the time gone?! I can't believe its already November! I miss family and friends from home but I am trying to embrace every moment I have here, because this is a once in a lifetime opportunity and I need to live it up! I can't even think about saying goodbye to people here especially my Tican Family, that is going to be hard. My Tican parents don't want me to leave either. They said I can just live here with them, but we still have time left and I shouldn't be thinking about goodbyes yet....
Today I've been packing up my belongings to head out for my next step of my journey. Tomorrow I will be leaving my family in San Jose at 4 am to catch a bus to Turialba, Cartago. Here I plan to live with a new family and help teach English in the High School for a month. I will be by myself during this time and I am pumped to see what God has in store for me! Right now I am nervous and excited! I feel like I am starting all over again. I was told the pueblo of Cartago is very beautiful. I will be living in the mountains. The pueblo has about 500 people. It's small and it will be a good change for me from the city atmosphere. Other than this I am not sure what to expect yet I am trusting God that He will guide me on this last leg of my journey abroad.
