Experiences in Bongo

Hannah S. LeeThis is my second year coming to Panama and each year has been a wonderful experience. I believe that the best part is feeling and being treated by the Panamanians like I am their family. Today was so great to see Karol, who was a translator for us last year. I just feel very comfortable with everyone and I have bonded with a couple of families from Bongo. I am feeling sad not knowing if I will be able to come next year or not because I feel that they are like family that I only get to see once a year. Bongo is one of my favorite places to be because everyone has time to sit and chat and play and that is something I think we lack in the United States because we have such a busy lifestyle. ~
