My time with the Arroyo family was an eye opening experience that I will never forget for as long as I live. During these five days I lived simply, yet I had an amazing time playing and hanging out with my siblings Johan and Pablo. They really made this experience incredible for me. Johan and I became especially good friends over this short period of time, mainly because we both have copious amounts of energy and enjoy the game of soccer. Although we had never met, we immediately bonded and became brothers. I can't thank Johan enough for incorporating me into his busy life, and constantly reminding me to always be optimistic. Thanks again Johan and the Arroyo family for showing me Costa Rican culture and for truly making me feel at home.
