Today is my last day in the Honduras, tomorrow I head back to the States. I've had several farewell gatherings over the past few days and have been saying goodbyes to groups of people in stages. I spent a day at some hot springs with my coworkers from Proyecto MAMA. It was a fun relaxing way to say goodbyes and remember stories from the year. Then later in the evening I had to say my goodbyes to my host family, soccer guys, and other friends I've made in the community. Everyone asked me when I was coming back.
Yesterday and today was spent with the MCC team and we had a final get together before some of us leave (3 SALTers plus Virgil and Kathy Troyer). It was really good to have a chance to hang out and say goodbye to the MCC team who have provided an amazing support system throughout the year.
Tomorrow I flying out Honduras, headed toward reorientation in Akron where we will get to meet up with all the other SALTers who served in other countries. It should be a good time to debrief and start to transition to being back in the United States. Then July 24th I take a plane back home to Reedley.
Looking forward to catching up with all you guys.
Thanks for reading
