A truly life changing experience.

My ISV experience included 2 weeks of volunteer work and 2 weeks of activities. I did 80+ hours of volunteer work with endangered species, such as dolphins and poison dart frogs! Seeing those dolphins in their natural habitat was exhilarating and I know that my volunteer work would help keep them safe. The activities were out of this world! I did so many things in one month that I don't think I could have dreamed of doing if I hadn't gone. I zip-lined, white water rafted, rappelled 290 feet down a waterfall, and so many other things. Besides the volunteering and the adventure, I learned something much bigger... I learned to be confident and to explore the world. There are so many different cultures and ways of life. I found a meaning within myself while I was in Costa Rica that I would have never found on my own. ISV helped change my perspective on life and the things around me. If I had the chance, I would do it all over again in a heartbeat!
