Some of the most important things I learned on the trip were patience, understanding, and appreciation. Seeing a place where they have so much less than we do in the US shows you how much you take for granted on the daily. Obviously not know how to speak Spanish and not being able to communicate too well with the Colombians can teach you to be patient and to be happy with whatever you can do. Being able to adapt to all different kinds of situations that you’re thrown in was really a key part.
