Jenna and Kristina here, exactly two weeks being home in Canada from our amazing adventure to Peru! Yesterday, Jenna and I got together with Jessica to celebrate Canada day and how fortunate we are to live in such an amazing country! It was great to see each other after 2 weeks apart, and it was great to reminisce about our travels. Though we're getting back into the hussle and bussle of Canadian life, its hard not to think about Peru and what we witnessed in our time there. Its been hard adjusting to not seeing everyone every day, but its great that we have each other to lean on after such a great journey. Like Kat said in an earlier blog post, a way to describe how we feel about the trip is "we feel full", and that still could not be more true. As great as it is to see our families and friends back home and share our experiences, we still miss the comfort of looking to any side and seeing a beautiful mountain. We were so fortunate to have such an unreal opportunity, and us telling the stories of our days does not do the trip justice. If theres anything we would recommend, it would be to go see it for yourself! I (Kristina) had the opportunity to speak with some of the Peru travellers from last year about their experience and it was amazing to see how much they differed and how much they had in common. We really hope to get together with the other Peru group to share experiences!

Though we're back in Canada, we still will always cherish our memories of Peru 2011! We mish it. So, if you have the opportunity to go on any kind of service learning initiative, take it!

Thank you to all those who have read our blog, whether it be while we are travelling or now.. we really appreciate your support!

All the best,

Yenna and KB
