Moving Out

Some days around here are very special for me.

Case in point, Sunday.

For three BECA students, Larry, Fanny and Frank (below),

Sunday, February 21st was moving day.

They received scholarships to study in the city of Granada.

Fortunately, the technical college INTECNA has student housing and that's where they will be staying.




I was fortunate enough to tag along on Sunday as they said goodbye to their families and headed up to Granada to set themselves up in their new "homes."


It might not be easy for them. From what I've seen Nicaraguan families, especially from the country, are very close-knit.

This move represents a HUGE adjustment for them and for their family members at home, too.

It was an honour to be with them on this special day.


Bravo!
