Van on same HXP trip as Walt in 2023 met Edwardo/Edward
In 2023 Van went to @hxp.drlacienaga and met Edwardo/Edward. He connected with him so much that he invited him on their weekend excursion (which I’ve been told it hasn’t ever happened, not before or after Van). When he came home he said the hardest to say goodbye to was Edwardo. Walt also met Edward on his trip with @hxp.drlacienaga this year. Even though they both went to the same location I wasn’t sure he’d get to meet Edwardo. They go to different schools in the city. Walt said, when the leaders told Edward that he was Van’s brother his eyes lit up and he got a big smile on his face. He jokingly called Walt, Van the rest of the time. Now we all want to go meet Edwardo/Edward. I think it’s amazing that you can connect so quickly and so strongly with someone even if you don’t speak the same language. The connections between the locals, the leaders and their group on these trips in such a short amount of time is so amazing to see.
Van's group called him Edwardo. Walt's group called him Edward.
