colorado springs, colorado!








so this was the only city we went to that i had visited multiple times before.
overall i really liked this week. first of all, i had the best room mates ever! veronika from sweden, humberto from mexico, and josh from arizona. we had a cool host family and absolutely loveddddd out host mom deena. she was amazing. :) our house was really close to sonic, so we ended up walking there a few times that week haha. 
we got to go to the olympic training center, and also garden of the gods. we even got to go bowling that week! it was a lottttt of fun. i got to see my dad, too! which was really fun. :) 
all of our community service this week was in schools. we taught and played games with elementary school and middle school level kids. it was on base too, so it was really interesting. 80% of the kids at these schools have a parent who is deployed to iraq or afghanistan. so it was a lot different than the normal kids that we work with. 
humberto, me, veronika, and josh at sonic one night!
yordi (ethiopia), me, danielle (wisconsin), and veronika (sweden). bowling at fort carson!
