They're Back!

What an incredible day! We saw 8 inspiring presentations from our Total Immersion program group that arrived on December 1st, 2015. Just a few days left and their 3 month program will come to a close! Take a peek at what they have been doing for the past month during their independent projects... Grace shows us some embroidery that she started in her community. She looked at people's relationship with the land and found that it is full of both fear and respect Next, Ellen took us on a journey through her second immersion program here with us in Yucatan, but this time it was in the Mayan language! She took us through the whole cycle of culture shock, crisis, adaptation and integration and then sung us a song she wrote and composed in Mayan Megan had a blast working with children in a community school and discovered that you can educate even without words She even learned how to weave her own hammock! Then, Kitt told us all about his time exploring
