Back on the Island

I'm back in Manhattan while the class finishes it's final days in Punta Cana.

I'm grateful for the time I got to spend with all of you in the DR and hope your last days are wonderful despite the food frustrations, sunburns, and bouts of stomach upset. I so love being with a new group of people that are excited about learning and the environment and who are thoughtful about the new experiences and ideas.

It's a bit shocking to go from Punta Cana - land of bright sun, blue green seas, starry nights, exotic flora and fauna, and warm natural architecture -to the industrial greys, brick oranges, busy streets and artificial lights of the city.

The best part of being back? Cold, clean, NYC water! (that I can drink without having to throw away endless plastic bottles). Thank you to the Big Apple for the wonderful H20.

I can understand how changing between two totally different climates can be shocking. I hope everything goes good for you!
