What I wish was different
Ideally I would've gotten to stay longer, but summer is only a few months!
Advice
Involving community members, especially when cultural artifacts and stories are included, is such a powerful and important part of this work. Make connections with all the amazing people you get to meet, because it's such an incredible opportunity.
