Costa Rica 2015:
June 2015 a small group of students and myself visited Costa Rica for an 11 day language immersion tour with EF Tours. The students took a language class in Tamarindo on the West Coast and got to experience many cultural activities ranging from learning to cook empanadas and salsa dance to zip-lining over a rainforest canopy and kayaking in the shadow of the Volcano Arenal.
Pictured above is Grace, Shanah, and Ellen walking the Tamarindo Beach at sunset in Costa Rica June 2015.
