The Blog is Back

We are glad to have our blog back up. Our mission was almost a year ago, and we both miss it so much. Fortunately, we both were reunited at Operation Smile's International Student Cultural Exchange or ISCE. Along with friends from over 23 other countries, we were able to learn about other cultures, and ultimately ourselves. This was a great experience for us both. We were able to meet new friends, and solidify relationships we had already made. Of course, we also were able to see each other. We always talk about the fact that neither one of us knew each other before our mission. Alexandra had met our sponsor, Jen, briefly in Denver, while Arielle knew neither one of them. It is so great that the three of us were able to mesh the way we did. We had an awesome experience, which would not have been complete without the camaraderie from the student team and our whole mission team. We will be posting fun updates about our clubs, our regions, or just Operation Smile in general. Here is a quick club update: Alexandra is hoping to bring new ideas to her current club, while Arielle will be joining the club at Barnard, and hoping to make it a very successful. We would be happy to answer any questions you have, so if you have any, please comment on this blog. We hope you have missed reading our blog, like we have missed writing it.


With Love,
Alexandra and Arielle
