Tying up Loose Ends

It has been almost a year since I touched down onto Venezuelan soil for the first time. This place has made me grow, learn, experience and create in a way that I never had before. I haven't written very much in the last few months because just living in Caracas was enough to keep me occupied, both mentally and physically, especially in the last weeks of my second semester at the UCV.

Over the next few weeks I hope to do a little "catching up" and reflect on some of the different parts of my experience here that I haven't written about. I had to move for the second time and am now living with some amazing Rotarians who have been there for me the whole year, and even more so recently when I had nowhere to go. So for the few weeks I have left here in this unique country, I will be writing more in an attempt to tie up some loose ends and see if I can understand a bit more of this "mundo al revés," as some call it.

For now, I leave you with this picture, taking on a scuba-diving outing off of Margarita Island. If you can't tell, I'm the one in the middle. :)
