June 1st, 2019

¡Hola!

       Our final day in Guatemala has finally come. We started our day with a 5:45 breakfast before heading to Pacaya, the volcano we were going to hike. The hike to the top took us around 2 hours, and the view was definitely worth it! Once at the top we roasted marshmallows on a geothermal hotspot and then stopped for lunch at another great lookout point. It was an amazing view and we were really lucky that the clouds cleared so we could see everything below. Then we started our trek down which only took about an hour. After the volcano hike we headed to Rolando’s (our host) cafe, called Spokes where we all enjoyed some much needed coffee after our early morning wake up! 
       We’re all looking forward to seeing our friends and family tomorrow and sharing all of our wonderful stories and photos! We talked a lot tonight about how this service learning experience impacted us and how it relates to our lives at home, as well as our future careers. We have truly learned so much and grown so much, as therapists and people, so please ask us about our experience! Thank you for following along and supporting our journey. We can't wait to see you all so soon!
