Today was agency day, the day that the Herrera province got the opportunity to meet the important people of the Ministry of Education MEDUCA, it was also a chance for all of our province to meet one another since most of our group 72 hasn't met any of the previous groups. It was also the first day that Chitre got rain- so walking in heels was a thrill and a half.
Once we all got there we played a bunch of ice breaker games, which were fun and actually pretty effective- Way to go Regional Leaders! Then we broke up into our program departments, Teaching English, and Community Environmental Conservation and explored more of our city as well as met every person who works in the MEDUCA Herrera office.
It was a little intimidating meeting most of those people especially since we all looked like a bunch of ragamuffins with our soaking wet hair and already worn out "fancy" clothes, but I think we still made a good first impression... eh?
Then for the fun part all of us crazy gringos went out to a tipico bar and danced like a bunch of lunatics while receiving free beers from locals, and it was also a time to actually get to know the other volunteers, who are AMAZING and crazy and wonderful just like our group and so I have continue to fall more and more in love with my province.
