Ladies and Gentlemen, I have the pleasure of introducing you to the Clivia Mineata (not to be mistaken with clivia miniata, a plant found in South Africa)- the title and representation for my blog. Costa Rica is one of the most bio-diverse countries in the world. It literally means "rich coast." Words cannot describe the joy and excitement I have for the opportunity to see, taste, feel, hear, and smell everything in a new county. This is probably where my passions for cultures comes into play. To be in a foreign city where I am forced to speak a different language, try new foods, and just live life differently gives me joy - and so much more. I truly don't know how to explain the feeling I get when I travel. I feel strengthened and empowered and loved by a God who has created each unique culture.
All that said, studying in Costa Rica for almost four months just seems like the perfect opportunity for me. Maybe the Lord will show me what He might have in store for me for a career path! Or maybe this will just reinforce my passions in life!
