Costa Rica Trip: 3/30

The next day was spent with the students at Earth University. We were divided into groups and given 'community service-like" tasks to do alongside each other all over the La Flor campus. My group consisting of Alex, Jacob, myself, and three Earth students (one from Columbia, one from South Africa, and one from Peru) were given the task of helping to clear a bath through the forest surrounding the campus. Carlos made sure to make us aware of the location of the medical personnel in case of snake bites and other injuries of that nature. We were told to walk around with a sharpened stick for protection in case of snake attacks, because killing animals on property, for self defense or not, is against La Flor policy. We explored Liberia that night a little bit more, and prepared for our long day the next day in the developing desert-like villages surrounding the city.
