International Experience Summary:
While in Paraguay, I studied Spanish for six weeks one on one with a teacher. I also traveled to museums, saw the Paraguayan river and even played a little basketball with the local children. I traveled to cities hours away so I could get to see all of Paraguay. I helped out at two orphanages while helping feed, cloth, and just to help bring out a smile from the children. They were just happy to see someone who cared. I took many pictures and learned all about the culture and traditions of Paraguay. It was a wonderful experience and I can not wait to go back!
