Pnw trip

Going on this trip was the best decision I made. It was my first time flying alone so I was very nervous. When I landed in seattle I was scared I wouldn’t find my guide who was there to pick me up. However when I saw one of the guides in the blue give shirts a flash of relief came over me, he gave me a big hug and I felt so welcomed and safe.
The people I met on this trip with me were so awesome! Friends that I look forward to meeting again one day, We are already planning a reunion trip!
The guides were amazing, they made us feel comfortable and safe, wanting us to come to them about anything we had on our mind. One thing I was worried about before the trip started was that our guides would treat us like kids, like most other camps do, not letting us go off and have fun or do spontaneous things. But when we all met them it was the complete opposite. They were all for us exploring and spontaneous swimming in waterfalls! I couldn’t have been more happy with the guides! Although I was only with them and the other volunteers for a week, by the end of it I would consider them family. We were all very sad to leave and go back home to different countries. If you take anything from this review let it be that you will make so many life long friendships going on a Give trip.
