"For most of us the problem isn't that we aim too high and fail- it's just the opposite- we aim too low and succeed."

Back in the States!!

So!!!

I am really behind in this blog!!! I got really caught up at the end of the semester in getting as much done as I could before I had to leave! I have been back in the states for a month and a half now and have been right back in college life here in Mass. Here are some closing thoughts on my trip!
November was a hectic time of final trips, holidays, the end of classes, saying goodbye to friends from around the globe, and saying goodbye to the amazing country I was visiting.
Last picture of Antigua! 

But! before I left I did some amazing things! The first and foremost of them being our class trip to Copan Honduras, the furthest western Maya site. We only spent a couple of days in Copan, but I think they might have been my favorite of the trip! (maybe not... XD)
Beautiful Copan Valley
We all got time to view the site, wander and ask questions about this incredible site. The uniqueness of the site is apparent immediately, and I was in heaven!
We're just chillin' on the top of an ancient temple... No biggy... XD
 Though this trip was amazing, all things must come to an end, and on the 3rd of December I returned back to Massachusetts, after saying "Hasta Luego" to Guatemala!
Final Spanish Class! 
And it is at endings that we can look back and really reflect on what it was we experienced. My greatest piece of advice? If you find an opportunity of a life time, Go For It, and get everything out of it you can!!! 
From beginning... to end!
