June 19th

Today we visited the UAC and heard presentations from the various grad students. We had all been quietly paying attention and all I could think about was how cool this place is. This university provides the young people in the Yungas with skills that they can take back to their community. I could not have been more intrigued by this place. The best part was that all the students were so interested in what they were talking about whether it was coffee growing, education, or chia seeds. That was all we did today, but it was all very interesting and we ate some awesome food prepared at the UAC and even got to hang out with some of the students. All around a great day.
