Carly Hosford Israel's photos from Costa Rica

This photo to me demonstrates the diversity within the Global College classroom.


This photo was taken in Sarapiqui as the effects of the bananas were unveiled to students.

This photo was taken in Boruca at the water fall, both the lighting and the formation of the rocks were inspiring.

This photo was taken on the trip to Sarapiqui while students were shown what existed pre-banana plantations.
