Official first day in Panama!
We started at Panama City, seeing the iconic Panama Canal and learned about how it works and how it has shaped the history here. We also learned how it is connected to the land and how they rely on each other.
We then took a roadtrip on our Big Pink Bus to Chitre, and got situated in our new home for 11 days.
On the way, we had a lunch pitstop; bacon burger was the favorite! As soon as we got to our new home, we got to know each other by playing games and in the seminar, where we got to set our intentions for the trip.
We had a wonderful dinner of cilantro rice, chicken, salad, and plantains! Then, we prepped our official first leaders of the day for tomorrow! They wowed us with their amazing talent and leadership already. We are excited for culture day tomorow, stay tuned!
Some of us even started prepping to show off our talent early!
Signing off!
