Heading back to Managua

Sad day: yesterday we found out we have to go back to Managua early, because our trip budget has run out (we were supposed to leave tomorrow, but instead, we're leaving today). But I must say, this trip has been absolutely iuncredible. I've gotton to spend the last six days in paradise interviewing local hotel/restaurant owners in order to do market research of the island. And I think at some point during this week, my Barcelona partners and I made the transition from being co-workers to being friends. I love when you realize you've bridged that gap. They invited me to go to San Juan del Sur with them (pacific coast beach) which I unfortunately can't because I'll be going to work with the other organization, but it was awesome to be invited. And we've begun a little bit of talking about future get togethers- I feel like I have an established place to go in Barcelona, should I want to return to Spain- and that's pretty incredible. :)

I can't believe I have just over a week left with this organization- how sad!!! I don't want it to end- It's pretty cool that our work is significant- and will have a lasting effect. I know that even when I leave, it doesn't mean my influence has left- I'll be with that company for years and years to come- manifested in the design and implementation of our business plan. How cool is that?!?!

Well, my comp is about to die, so I must be off!!

Until next time,
Rachel
