Reflections on a Two Week Miracle...

by Tricc...

These past two weeks have definitely been the highlight of my life so far. From roaming the black sand beach in New Zealand to throwing out shirts to the shirtless in Samoa, this experience is one that will change my life forever. My favorite parts of the trip were...

1) Visiting the elderly in Samoa and shaking their hands. It was incredible to see how their eyes lit up when we went around and told them "Talofa" or "Talofa lava." You could tell that being visited by a handful of college students really brightened their day.
2) Karaoke night at a fish and chips shack in Samoa. After this amazing night of singing and dancing, my abs were sore from the two straight hours of laughing.
3) Watching coach do the Haka and showing us his Pukana face at the Maori village. We got to see his poly side for sure.

These three experiences with many others on the trip have really added a different perspective to my life and made these past two weeks an unforgettable experience!
