What a way to end a trip. We spent the last day at United Nations Headquarters, and spoke with our good man Felipe for a few hours. I learned a lot from him about how to incorporate what you believe into what you do! He's a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints like me, and he said that working for the U.N. was so rewarding because he was applying what he was learning in church to real life.
One of their goals was to end world hunger by the year 2030 - a goal that seems nearly impossible! Yet they have made so much progress already. https://www.un.org/en/ That was our last appointment and we took a very scary van ride back to the airport that had us all leaning over a grocery bag in case we were about to hurl. Our driver was relentless but I'm proud to say we made it alive and I slept the entire 5 hours of the plane ride because of my drowsy-motion-sickness medication, only to wake up for 5 minutes to drink my apple juice and pass back out on the tray in front of me. I'll never forget my time here and what I learned. PR is the place for me, and I can't wait to work harder with the knowledge I've gained in such an iconic city.
