Day 8 – Fun Day – Rincon del Faro

Welcome from your Day 8 Líderes del Día—Alle, Soxo, and Nathalie,

Today’s energy was high and the vibes were even higher! We started strong with an early morning run (yes, voluntarily), followed by a delicious French toast breakfast that hit the spot.

The rest of the day was pure sunshine: relaxing at the Rincón del Faro beach and pool, splashing around, soaking up rays, and enjoying some well-earned free time. Some of us went shopping in Las Tablas, others got a workout in at the local gym, and a few just couldn’t get enough pool time.

Being an LDD wasn’t all smooth sailing though—it was a challenge trying to keep track of everyone in a group of 20 and make sure plans were clear. It was a bit stressful at times, but also incredibly rewarding. Everyone had a great time, and the group shared a lot of laughs, conversations, and memories that brought us even closer together.

As LDDs we were able to step up to organize everyone, stay positive, and make the day awesome for everyone (maybe slightly less awesome for us because we were so busy!)

Tomorrow we’re back in the forest, in the mud, planting 600 trees to hit our target of over 1000. Sleep well everyone and remember to put on hats and sunscreen tomorrow!

Alle, Nathalie, and Soxo xoxo
