8-27-2015, JFK New York

Wow. What an amazing few days… Well… Week. What am amazing week. I've met so many people and learned so much and now, as I sit in JFK airport watching two of my cohort, Abby and Jackson, play hacky(?)sac and listen to the two women next to me argue in Arabic, I realize just how much this week has meant. I have met so many amazing people over the past 8 days. From 20 countries, 40 states, all I have found at Global Citizen Year are amazing people who are wonderfully talented and kind beyond belief. They have been a solid foundation for me to build the person I will become, especially with the challenges I have faced over the past 5 days. All I can say is that I hope I will grow and learn and laugh with these people. And my cohort just brought back burgers. So I am going to go and eat one. I'll keep you all updated as soon as I can!
