Michelle Nikolai When I look back on my experience in Costa Rica, there are so many memorable moments- I learned so much about the culture, the language, and the people while I was there. My little abuelita taught me to cook picadillo de papas and keep a positive attitude. I learned how to navigate through the countryside even after my bus broke down. The natives of Guatil de Santa Cruz taught me how to turn clay into beautiful pottery. Above all, the scenery and people were amazing!
