Yesterday we spent our first night on our homestays with the locals. We played games using cards, soccer balls, spoons, play dough, and more. It was a blast and the families are doing so much for us through their cooking and hospitality. The food here is better than I think any of us could have imagined and the people here are full of joy and have permanent smiles on their faces. This morning, we woke up early like people usually do in Costa Rica to make the most of daylight. Walking to the high school, we learned that it is not always an easy task getting to school as many people drive cars or motorcycles long distances to get there, we even saw one young girl riding a horse to school. This was our first full day in the community and we spent the majority working on the school website, which is almost finished, and a tourist guide for the area. This afternoon we are planning on returning to our homestays and playing more games with the children, we might meet up at the local park to play a game of soccer. We all enjoy our host families and the community around us, we are having so much fun in El Paraiso and can´t wait for what tomorrow will bring.
