I returned to Peru this year from going last year with the Friends and Family Trip, and it was even more wonderful this time! The community in Yanamono is small compared to other Youthlinc sites that many of the villagers remembered me which was so heart-warming. I enjoyed working hard to help improve their home area with bridges, walkways, painting the school and simply interacting with the people. The students I went with were amazing as they worked tremendously hard and created such bonds with the people. It was a wonderful experience and I look forward to doing it again!
