Let´s See How Far We´ve Come...


music: let's see how far we've come (matchbox 20)

When you start losing hope in where you going,
look back to see how far you have come.

The World´s Greatest

Today, I am braving the storage unit with everything I left in the US when moving to Chile for "a year" then hoping to end the day with some celebratory surfing and tacos.  Watching all of my old Libros a Lobitos and travel slideshows with students at my old High School yesterday was such a blast.  I didn´t get to play this one so I wanted to share it with all of you.  It is one of my favorite videos and really favorite things of all times.  It still gives me goosebumbs.  These kids elected to study English with me TWO HOURS a day, FIVE DAYS a week for two months.  They are such motivated, energetic and good-hearted young people and working with them fills my life with more joy than I ever could have imagined.

Big thanks to Tom Chadwick for this video!  You are a beautiful human and wonderful filmmaker.  I miss you, friend and I miss these kiddos too.

They are hands-down, the world's greatest.
