Honey, I'm home!

Coach Murray used to talk to us about the 'strong finish' of a race. No matter how tired or sore, be sure to cross the finish line effortlessly with a look on your face that says you could run the whole race over right at that moment. Well we certainly had a strong finish to our time in Brazil.

Our time after Sao Lourenco was spent enjoying the country side, seeing historical sites and meeting more wonderful host families. I had the opportunity to visit some of Brazil's best universities and witness the future of greatness to be had by that country as determined by the magnificent research projects that were shown to us.

Now that I'm home the real work begins. The work of taking what I have learned and experienced and using that energy to better my life and the lives of others. This is now the time to cultivate the relationships that have formed and continue to build the bonds of friendship and exchange.

Thank you District 7600 for providing this opportunity for growth. Thank you District 4600 for being a catalyst of life change.
