women with Lawrence tshirts making traditional Guatemalan food with plantain and black beans at industrial metal table
Getting hands on with the culture of Guatemala, the teachers visiting El Patojismo, a secondary school and community center, prepared rellenitos, a traditional Guatemalan dessert made of plantain filled with black beans and chocolate.
After touring Guatemala City and Antigua cultural sites, the group participated in school activities in several communities, taking part in the school day and even walking the students routes home to get a feel for life in Guatemala.
And still much more to learn as they continue their week long immersion.
