Unveiling the Curtains

Hey there! My name is Josiah Francis. But to make things easier, you can call me Cisco. I am a proud Monarch of Mount Eden High in Hayward, California, and I aspire to become one of the few glimpsers of our school. Nothing makes me happier than achieving great results and making progress every day. That screams that I love writing, working out, and polishing my skills in various sports, board games, and video games, of course. But outside of that, I also enjoy listening to music, particularly that of Mac DeMarco and Vacations. I honestly cannot wait to meet new people and make new friends on this upcoming trip to Turrialba. I am also eager to witness and experience Costa Rican culture and to learn something new about diversity and nationality-driven perspectives. Not to mention my curiosity about the country’s cuisine. Nevertheless, in this trip, I aim to bring improvements, an improvement that will be beneficial not only to the wildlife and people we are helping but also to my peers along the way.
