I chose Carpe Diem Education's Southeast Asia program because I wanted to venture beyond the Western world and learn how to travel with guidance from a knowledgeable organization. After speaking with a Carpe Diem Alumni, I felt reassured that the program with all of its specific intentions and attention to detail would serve as the best introduction to my gap year.
Carpe Diem pays special attention to creating the most moving experience for its students. The itinerary for my trip intrigued me because of the wide variety of activities planned for the semester.
