Elia F Marymount University
"I learned how to adapt to a new experience abroad in a brand new culture and environment while still staying true to myself and feeling like I have a genuine safety net still.

A student Brandeis University
"The experience of field-based learning and cultural inmersion has left a remarkable impact on me that I will undoubtedly never forget.

Siya A University of Washington
"I gained an understanding of climate change that I didn't have the same way before--actually being in a place that has experienced great warming and extreme weather of all sorts is very different from learning about it in classes. I also gained some really close friends, colleagues, and a sense of direction for my future. "
A student University of Colorado - Boulder
