Day 10 Last full day

Hello,

It’s Kristi and Ana here (for the second time)! We are now spending our very last full day in Panama City before we go off to the airport at 4am tomorrow morning. We had a three-hour long reflective seminar this morning, where we had a recap of all our activities, made a roadmap of our journey, and gave our appreciation to everyone we had our trip with. We had lunch before enjoying our five-hour ride with lots of singing, dancing, and snack sharing. We ended off the day arriving at our hotel in Panama City, where we exchanged Big Love and tears at our final nightly meeting.

This group of people are the brightest, most joyous and diverse group we have ever met, and they embody every value one would find in the culture of Panama. They are proof that all people are unique and that isn’t something uncomfortable, but something beautiful. Everyone here imprinted a lasting memory on one another and it’s an enormous blessing that we all connected so fruitfully.

For whenever my fellow Glimpsers read this: thank you for being such life-changing people. And for our friends and families: thank you for following along with our journey and engaging with our blogs.
