"I've learned how completely and entirely dependent we are on the ability to email/call/text people. I did a rural stay in Guanacaste, Costa Rica, where I didn't have access to a phone or the Internet. I developed the most intimate relationships there because I only had the people around me. It was a bit uncomfortable at first, but I learned the most about the language and the culture from that experience."
