"PERUsing with Traci Stewart"
Written by Elon Phoenix on 2:32 PM
Elon volleyball's Traci Stewart is spending the winter term studying abroad in Peru. Read all about her Peruvian adventures as she shares them with Phoenix fans on our blog.
I can't believe the time has come for me to leave this unbelievable place. It's a bitter sweet feeling to say the least. We had a toast tonight to an incredible journey full of laughter and smiles. This place is indescribable. One of a kind. And I wouldn't have wanted to be here with anyone else but the people I have met along the way. From Raul to my core group of friends, people shape who you are, these people and this place have changed me. I have been able to see things through a bigger lens. I've been blinded for so long, living in my Elon, North Carolina bubble, where I'm comfortable. It's my home. However, I have another home now - Peru. I have seen so many things in the past 24 days that people long to see in a lifetime. What a beautiful place, what beautiful people. I hope I am meant to return here again someday, but if I'm not, I will always hold the memories I have made here. The memories that have shaped me, the people who I have grown to love and will love forever.
Thanks to all of you who have enjoyed this journey with me from afar. I hope I could share with you a small glimpse of this place with you, although words don't do this place justice. Here's to Peru.
