Reflections

As our time is drawing closer and closer to the end, we take time to reflect on what we've experienced and learned over the past six months. Here's some of our thoughts:

We've learned that:

1. You can buy the essentials in life right from your front door: Coke, beer and bread!
   
2. Walking slower can get you there faster.
3. It is important to talk to your neighbors.
4. The best places to go are often the hardest to get to.
5. Sometimes all you have to do is ask.
6. Cricket is more than just a noisy little bug.
   
7. Cockroaches stink when you whack them with your shoe.
8. Dogs are extremely resilient, surviving cars, parasites, and the stones I throw at them.
9. Farming is a challenge, no matter where you are.
10. The world is full of inspirations.
11. Sometimes my skin is a burden and a barrier.
12. 24 C can be cold and 60 km/h can be fast.
13. Just because someone speaks English doesn't mean you will understand what they're saying.
14. Oildown is delicious.
15. Sometimes tourists' actions embarrass me.
16. Silence is a rare commodity on a Caribbean island.
17. Where there is passion and determination much can be done with very little.
18. Damage cannot be counted merely in a physical sense, it affects every aspect of a people and takes years for recovery.
19. Grenadians don't walk in the rain because they cannot depend on a health care system to cure their ills.
