HOW MUCH CAN YOU DO IN 1 YEAR?

Most people say that life is short.... but its not. You just need to do more👍

I want to share my 1 year expierence that I had in El Salvador. I learned so much and expierenced a whole new life in just 1 year

In El Salvador I got to swim in the ocean and expierence having fun in the ocean and beach.

This is a picture of my brother and I playing in the water

And because I love football, I needed to play some football on the beach as well. It hurts your feet after a while from the wet sand stuck to it but its to fun to stop

Always need a hat and shirt to cover up from the sun... or else you will get burnt so bad and hurt the at night and the next day. When it gets to hot then you can just hop right back into the water

This is me, my brother and a friend doing some pushups from the truck in some shade... you cant stay at the beach all day so we just chilled in some shade for a bit

I also got to see how they cut down their coconuts and feel how heavy they actually are.

Here me and my friend are carrying some coconuts to our truck to take home

I got to visit a nice lake side house that was right by the lake because one of my soccer teammates parents were taking care of the house for the owners

We went to go check out the dock and I also ended up swimming in the lake and having a great time with family

Creating connections can lead to great moments and can lead to amazing expierneces and relationships

It was so much fun to go on the boat because it felt so nice with the wind blowing against you.

Swimming was also alot of fun and juming off the dock is aloud 👌👍

Got to spend plenty of time with my family and do so many things. Being in a third world country was so different from living in Canada and there was so many new expierences

I also got to see what it was like to be in another school and a third world country without understanding the language. This was probably the most boring expierence because I hate school. But at least I seen what it was like because I didnt have to go expierence a third world country school but I got to expierence a third world country school👍

One day I went outside and seen this ring around the sun amd never before seen one but im pretty sure its a halo. If its not and you guys know what it is then please let me know in the comments below

I owned my first dog that I can remember having because the dogs my family had before I was to young to remember but this was my first dog and her name was layla. We bought her for only $40 because I guess the seller didnt care about the money hahaha. It was also a friend who sold it to us so that was cool.

She was a pretty rough dog and loved to play around but would scratch pretty hard haha

My favorite part about being in El Salvador was the football experience. I improved so much in football while being in El Salvador and got to experience what it was like to play a different style and in super hot weather

When I first got to the field to sign up, they let me check out the stadium and field and it was so amazing to see. I hope one day to play in that satdium as a pro. One of my coaches over there said he believes I can do it and so I just need to work hard everyday to get there.

This is a picture of the coach I had. He was the best coach I had in football and was willing to spend alot of time to imorove me. He even wanted to bring me to play football in Nicaragua which is a different country.

Playing football there gave so many cool experiences and relationships with people there and the cool thing is that football over there costs $10 a month and we train like 4 days a week and here in Canada its $200 a month with 3 days a week.

I got to watch the first team play live at the stadium which was awesome. The fans were crazy and built a great atmosphere

We trained at this athletic park surrounded with beautiful mountains and had a lot of fun times

My coach was so amazing because he didnt care about the money. There were times where he wasnt making enough but still trained us as hard as he could. He was always right into our practices and focused on improving us. In Canada its a bit different. I had this coach who would tell us to do a drill and then he would go on his phone and not pay attention... but that doesnt go for all coaches because the coach I have right now is a brilliant coach👌

Playing games and tournaments was the best part and so much fun. Playing football in El Salvador was so hot every single day

I got to play on some dirt fields with rocks and bumpy fieds which made it even more fun to expierence because now going back to Canada the kids complain about one little bump where I got to play on dirt fields with holes and rocks hahaha 😁👌🤣

I still remember this games I played. I ended up scoring 4 goals and was super happy. But once again it was so damn hot. But it was also cool because everyday there in El Salvador is like 30+ celcius.

I got to see what it was like in the locker rooms in the stadium and walk through the tunnel into the field

We had like a 3 hour long practice that day and went through multiple stations of drills and had some games

The funny part about over there and thats different from Canada is that over there the kids and people drink water out of mini bags. They sell water in mini bags where you make a little hole and drink from it 🤣

Everytime there is a game... the bench is in the shade because everyone would die if it was in the sun

I got to do a victory lap with my team during the professional game

We also had team dinners with the team and had some fun.

This isnt all one team if you were wondering. This is players from different levels and ages

Here is my coach again...I hope to train with him again one day

This was a great team a had with all good players. We had good times scoring goals

These were some of my 2 best buddies in the team and we scored alot of goals together 👌⚽️

Playing games on artificial turf when its 30+ degrees celcius in not a great feeling hahah. You can really feel the heat on this field but luckily is was in the morning so not as hot.

Before each game we played, our team would pray and huddle and one time they made me pray even though i didnt know how to pray in spanish haha

Before alot of our practices started we would swing from this rope that hung from a tree and one time I fell and scraped my hand haha

Another great memory that I had playing there was when It poured rain and we woukd play in puddles and mud where the ball would move one inch when you tried to pass it haha. It was a really fun time

We got soaked and even fouled each other just to get the other person wet and dirty. At this point all the parents are just worrying about all the clothes they are going to wash haha 😂

The landscape was beautiful when we played games

One time we got to play on the professional field and got destroyed this game because we played an italian club haha

I celebrated my 12th birthday in El Salvador with my football team where we played in the playground area and had tons of fun. I also got a lot of presents and 4 soccer balls that I ended giving one to my teammate that didnt have one

We had some good food and laughed alot

At the time Rey Mysterio was still in the WWE and I was a huge fan so I got a Rey Mysterio cake

Had times to chill with family and my dog

Chritsmas was another dope part that I got to expereince. It might look different from Canada because theres no snow haha. When its winter in Canada its Summer in El Salvador

It was also like 25+ celius during the night hahah

Fireworks is a huge part in christmas is El Salvador. Everyone is aloud to use there own fireworks that they sell at the store. There are many accident with fireworks esoecially with kids.

This is a volcano firework

Those were some of the big highlights of being in El Salvador for one year. i had more but couldnt find the pictures for everything. Im now here in the okanagan by the lake with my soccer ball.

That year was so much longer than others i had because i did more and new things. So if you feel that time flies or life is short... well its not. You just got to do more and experience new stuff.

If you can dont spend your money on a new car that you dont need. Instead travel to a new country and you will get so much more out of it.

Do More In Life
