As I wrap up my time with your class, I want to thank you for welcoming me into your space, even if only for a short time. It was great getting to share a little about my experience in Ecuador and learning about your perspectives as well.

For those of you interested in travel, language and cultural exchange, I encourage you to look into programs like the Peace Corps. It’s a unique opportunity to live and work in another country while contributing to a community in meaningful ways. Whether through volunteering, studying abroad or simply staying curious about the world, there are so many ways to engage with different cultures and broaden your perspectives.

I hope our conversations have given you a glimpse into life outside the U.S. and sparked some curiosity about Ecuador and beyond. Wishing you all the best in your studies and future adventures!
