We learned a lot about talking across the political divide, depolarizing ourselves and how to participate in and lead a parliamentary debate.  

During our breaks, we ate at the best pizza place, Pi Pizza, walked to coffee shops and picked up my favorite foodie magazine “Feast,” which is only published in St Louis. Never in a million years would I think of St. Louis, Missouri as a foodie mecca, but it is.
