Surf and Serve: College Edition - Students Love Travel
- Costa Rica
About Program
Calling all college students! We have a brand-new Summer Program specifically for you!
Surf and Serve: College Edition is a 14-Day trip to Costa Rica that will bring together college students from across the US who are interested in travel, Spanish, or ecology. This trip offers the ideal opportunity to put the Spanish skills you have learned virtually or in the classroom to use, employing real-life conversation skills in an authentic setting. It will also provide the cultural experience of life in a Costa Rican beach town, where you will stay only a few minutes’ walk from the shore with great places to eat and waves to surf. Travel can also present the opportunity to support local volunteer efforts and positively impact the community, and so this trip will feature service work to protect and preserve the wildlife within the rainforest ecosystem.
