I have had some of the strongest reactions to my talks in South America. When I gave a talk in 2013 on Whole Child Education for the 7th World Conference for Childhood Talent sponsored by the ELIC Foundation (Free Schools for Scientific Research) held in Bucaramanga, Colombia, I was “swarmed’ by about 30 members of the audience. I did not have enough of my cards to give out. I have to thank Ivan Romo who translated that talk into Spanish.
I was asked again by the ELIC Foundation to present on holistic education at a conference in 2015 in Sucre, Bolivia. At both of these conferences people were so friendly and warm. I had time to walk around Sucre and there was a lovely town square where I was able to sit for a couple of hours and just enjoy seeing the people there.
