“We also got a new Mayan name,so we weren’t Carmina, Luz, Diego and Maria, we were Ho-Kan,La Kan Kiea, Ukk Ik and Kat-Lajun. We were free to be ourselves and it was one of the most important parts of our camp”. ~Maria

Fears and limits were pushed and literally conquered, not to mention the fact that we were cleaned in both body and mind. This experience, together with the morning’s climb, set the tone for the rest of the week.

I think that our goals with the JUMP time were more than accomplish,and the main goal with this JUMP time was to form our project and to form the idea that we got from the camp of H/S. ~Diego

ReflectionReflection

In general, I think that everything went very well. There were some things that happened that we didn’t plan, but we just kept going, and at the end, we realized that we achieved al our goals, and that everybody had changed in a very short time.

~Luz

ReflectionReflection

We chose our project or problem to attack, and I am really glad, because it was the one that I had proposed, and the environmental care is something that really concerns me and I think that everybody, because the earth is our house and we need to do something for her, and we are going to have very bad problems if we doesn’t do anything. Well we also started our plan and got really good ideas. I feel like we really raised consciousness in everyone, and also in me, because I thought that like I had already done some of the activities and that there wouldn’t be anything new but I was so confused, I learned a lot and I feel very good about it.

~Maria

ReflectionReflection

The idea of be different than the others and start doing something for our world and focusing in our community, now is in their hearts. Watching all of this makes me so happy and is so satisfying and nice for me and also I think for all the people that inspirited me to create this idea, and pass these whole concepts to the society in Mexico.
