Tonight is my last night in the United States. I spent the day with many friends and tonight I spent playing games with my family. Since I'm one of five children in my family it's hard to get us all together, it was nice to be with my entire family having fun before I left. I am super excited to arrive in Colombia, even if it does mean an over night flight :-)

I want to thank everyone who helped make this dream come true. From all the people who sent checks to all the rotarians. Also to all my friends who have been at my side through it all even though I know you will miss me, you still supported me. And thank you to the Rotex who have told me so much about Colombia. See you in a year :-) I'll miss you
