Today was our 8th day in Argentina and we left Córdoba on our way to Buenos Aires. The departure was an incredible mix of emotions for the students from both schools.
In just one week together the host families in Córdoba and our students formed an inspiring bond that was displayed with 100’s of hugs, pictures and tears in the middle of the airport! The host families also showered our students with gifts and home made food for the short journey to Buenos Aires.
Patricia, Gretel and I have not stopped smiling all day - Córdoba was truly a special opportunity for our students!
During one of our group chats after dinner tonight, the students talked about being home sick... for Córdoba!
Testimonials:
Arriving to the airport in Cordoba to board the flight to Buenos Aires was one of the hardest things I've had to do. In such a short time, my homestay family had become like a real family, and all of the Argentinian kids my friends. I was overwhelmed (to the point of tears) by all of the amazing memories I had made this passed week in Cordoba, and I know I will visit again someday in the future (my host mom has already offered to host me again any time).

I am sad about leaving behind the good memories in Córdoba but hopeful that we will see those kids again.
