Adios Costa Rica

My study abroad trip has unfortunately come to an end but it has gone in the books as the most unforgettable trip. Not only did I learn about sustainable business in another country, but I got to experience a different culture that really benefited me in many ways. I have grown as a business woman and an individual. I got to meet a Congressman that might be President of Costa Rica one day. I also got to feel like Charlie in Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory because I learned how to make chocolate and got to visit a bubble gum factory. One of the most important parts of the trip is I got to know sixteen other individuals that I will remember for a lifetime! 

Alex- The best roommate and the best person at pulling Dardar's

Johnae - Best Captain to drive our fishing boat

Lizzie- Miss LSU

Jacob - the class clown and the annoying older brother I never had

Danielle Lites - Miss Fashion Queen

Roman- the quite but hilarious guy that always puts a smile on your face

Kailey - Winner for best bathing suits and for applying the most sunscreen

Matt - Mr. Bilingual Adventure

Austin - The "Cowboy" Gentlemen 

Mariem - the Most Humble and Thoughtful of us all

Danielle Touchard - The Sweetheart

Morgan - She might be tiny on the outside but has a strong and lovable personality on the inside

Peyton - Miss Party Queen & future founder of PETA in Costa Rica

Greg - the lifesaver! If it wasn't for him I might have had to use my ISD card to get my body back home

Kelly - Future Mrs. Costa Rican 

and last but not least...

Momma P - Costa Ricans thought she was my mother (even though she is way to young to be) but the best professor for this trip! I learned so much from her and she is a great role model for us all! 

Now I'm off to pack for the next adventure of my life. I will be starting an internship in Houston soon and hopefully I can relate the business practices I learned in Costa Rica to the international firm I will be working for this summer. PURA VIDA!
