Colorado Mountain College students travel to Nicaragua in November 2007 to study globalization, economic development and democracy.
This is a blog of our experiences in Nicaragua and our analysis of how free trade and globalization is affecting the people of that country.

We are now mostly all back in the states. Everything seems turned upside down to me. and it's wierd that less than 24 hours ago we were still in Nicaragua. Wow.
Welcome home! I have followed your sojourn on the blog. Having the opportunity to travel abroad brings many riches to the traveler--whether that be a fresh insight as to what one has and what one values or a look at what others have or are lacking. From such a perspective comes a deeper appreciation of so many aspects of life. The experience enables us to examine long-held beliefs and values and to reconfigure our own understanding of the world and the role each of us plays in it. We eagerly await your detailed stories, your eye-opening photographs and your excitement at having seen another part of our world and having met some of its people. Welcome Home! Happy Thanksgiving to all of you! aj
