Tell us about your International Experience trip. Where did you go? What was your favorite part?

I went to Costa Rica for my International Experience. It was incredible learning about the country's focus on sustainability and biodiversity. We also learned how to use the country's motto, "pura vida"("pure life"), which can be used in replace of "thank you", "good bye", and almost everything. My favorite experience during the trip were our group excursion to the restaurants, the city, and the beach we took together as a group.
