Thursday June 7

My most favorite part of TJJ has definitely been making new friends. All of the kids on bus 1 are so friendly and kind. No matter what I feel welcome in every situation and I feel I can have fun and be myself around them like a family. I have met so many new kids this trip and I cherish every moment I share with them. The water hikes have been so incredible. Working together to help one another along the way has been the most memorable time so far. I hope my relationship with all my new friends becomes stronger as the trip continues. I am look forward to enjoying the rest of the events on TJJ and building stronger relationships with my new family.
