Day 1- Arrival!

Our Global Glimpsers finally arrived to Costa Rica!!!!
We were really excited to have our first delegation arrive and, after a 6 hour flight and 3 hour bus ride, we all made it safe to our base house in Santa Cruz de Turrialba.
As soon as we arrived we had a delicious lunch, (CASADO) which is a typical Costa Rican dish made of rice, black beans, chicken, salad and sweet plantains. After a short break, we started with our Welcome & Accommodation Seminar to let our glimpsers know the expectations and agreements that we all commit to during these next 11 days.
Today was a lot of theory, but within all the information, our glimpsers played pool, some cards and enjoyed getting to know each other.
For today, we just got familiar with our base house. TOMORROW IS ANOTHER DAY and we will have plenty of time to do our City Tour!!!!!

We are happy to have our glimpsers finally here and excited to start our trip! 🙂
