I’ve been anticipating this trip ever since Mark informed me that I was chosen to go to Calanli, Mexico because it feels great to go somewhere and participate in something that is virtuous and beneficial for your self and others. Instead of the usual spring break for a college student; going to Mexico and becoming inebriated, I will help build some concrete floors for the locals of Calnali so that they can live better and more sustainable lives. This helps me see the social issues around me and also helps broaden my perspective on Mexico.
