Day 9: Cultural Exchange and Cheese Farm

Today our group went to do a cultural exchange at the Santa Rosa Middle School. Our group did our opening ceremony and art projects with the middle schoolers. They also performed a school assembly for us where some of the kids dressed up as bees, butterflies, cars, etc. Then we spent time and had lunch with the kids. We did our closing and left the school with fantastically amazing memories!

Then we took a bus to Finca Florita, a cheese farm. We met our tour guide, Carla, and walked through the whole cheese making process. We saw the cows and some of our fellow Glimpsers got to milk them and make cheese out of the milk! From our tour, we learned what it means to be a more responsible consumer. After that, we had a quick style change and had dinner at Fratelli, an Italian pizzeria. We had pizza like pepperoni and 4-cheese and also got to try chicken pesto pizza! We ended the night with our very last nightly meeting.
