At the moment when I arrive to Miami’s International Airport I knew that what I was about to live was something that I never thought that I would have the opportunity to. Everything starts with the 3 charismatic World...

Prompt # 2 What had you learned about environmental leadership

One important thing that has been in my mind for all this time since the first lesson of this program is that knowledge is the key that opens the door of people's motivation. An example of this is that we always kept saying that if we teach the people how to recycle they will do it and even better they will be motivated to do it. But if we do not provide any information to our community about recycling and how this will help us to live in a better place, even if they have the most attractive trash cans in the world, they will not recycle.

Prompt #1 Take a selfie with something that you really like from your host family.

In this picture, it is me with the wonderful family’s piano. I really like the piano because it is so elegant how it sounds. And what you can do with just your fingers on it is amazing. Now, my mom Carol is teaching me how to play the piano. ylpsouthamerica
