National Model United Nations: Cuban Delegation

I got the opportunity to participate in the National Model United Nations in New York City this past week. I didn't get to take a lot of pictures because it was so busy during the actual conference, but I did take some at the closing ceremony and after. New York is still one of my favorite cities. It was April and it rained nearly everyday.

El Salvador - Habitat for Humanity

I went to El Salvador with Habitat for Humanity over the spring break. It was a truly amazing experience! I only took my Canon Powershot because the build site was an open-site so I didn't know how well I would be able to secure my camera. I don't think the photos were terrible considering. 

After arriving!

The walls around town were all painted with these amazing, bright , colorful murals!
