Day Number 1

Hello, again!


Well, after over 24 hours of traveling, I have finally made it to beautiful Monteverde. I couldn't stop smiling the entire last half hour of the terrifying bus ride up the mountain. This is just one of those places that touches a place in your heart and nothing else ever comes quite close to it. I am so excited to be spending my second summer in a row here.

In about half an hour, I will be reunited with Dario, one of my best friends I made last year, and I will be meeting my assistant choreographer, Sophia. I know very little about Sophia other than her background is mostly jazz dancing and that we are the same age. I think we'll make a good match judging from our very limited correspondence thus far. Lisa, FCCMT's founder and director, won't be getting here until tomorrow, so Sophia, Dario, and I will be taking care of some logistical things this afternoon. It's kind of a relief to immediately have work to do. As much as I love my host family and am glad to be with them for the second year in a row, I really love working here.

Keep following! I'll be posting again soon.
