GUADALUPE, CAFÉ

We started the day off like we usually do, we met at Amipila at 8:30 and prepared ourselves for the camp. At the camp we began with our question of the day which was what your favorite color is. We played volleyball, had a paper airplane competition, and played other games. Overall, we were very active (like the previous days) and had a great time. For lunch we had rice, meat, and a salad. I have noticed that rice is a very common meal here, eaten almost every day. It is a very easy dish that can be made quick, which is what my host family was explaining to me. After lunch, we had some free time and we all went on a walk and got ice cream, which has been a very popular activity we have done this week. Later in the day, we had our coffee workshop. A barista from a coffee shop came to teach us about different Panamanian coffee, how it's made, and the costs of different types. We tried a few types, and I thought it was a great experience. I never noticed how in-depth coffee processes are, and it was really interesting to compare coffee in the U.S to coffee in Panama. To end the day, a few of us went on another walk, another trip to get some ice cream, and back to the host families. For every meal with my host family, we talk about a lot of different things, and dinner this day was especially long because we talked about so much. We shared how the camp went, talked about different sports teams, differences and similarities between Colorado and Panama. Other days we usually play games with the two kids that live in the house.
