Lifetime Summer Camp Experience!
Posted by AAVE Parent in : Ecuador & Galapagos, General AAVE Trip BLOG , trackback
Kelsey had, in her words, “the time of her life”! Aside from the amazing flora and fauna offered by Ecuador and the Galapagos, Kelsey had an opportunity to learn about, and from, another culture that is so very different from our own. The experience gave her an interesting new perspective on her own ideals and morals. In addition, she learned invaluable lessons in interpersonal relationships and has forged what I am sure will be lifelong friendships. She (and I) could not have been happier with her trip leaders, whom we both trusted and respected. I appreciated the leaders taking the time to introduce themselves to me and chat with me briefly during my conversations with Kelsey. I thought the communication home was sufficient; in fact, I received more calls/emails than I had expected. My theory is that if I’m not getting calls it’s an indication that Kelsey’s having too much fun to stop and call mom (or alternatively, in an area to remote to do so) - there’s plenty of time to hear the details when she returns. I’d rather have her out exploring than searching for a telephone or internet connection. That said, I loved hearing about the trip and was a daily visitor to the trip blog!! -Charlotte Bodell
