Trip of a Lifetime

This trip was something I chose to do on a whim, try something new and get out of my comfort zone. I feel everyone would be a little skeptical about doing something like this, and even up to the point I got there I had my reservations. But that all changed when I landed and met the guides. They immediately were the most friendly and welcoming people, and that never let up. Throughout the entire trip everyone was super friendly and helpful, and would stop everything they were doing to help you at the drop of a hat. Everything was well thought out down to them asking you to remove packaging on anything you might have and dispose of it before you get into the country. The opportunities given were fantastic, having the opportunity to learn the language, learn the culture, learn some crafts from the locals, and learn peoples thoughts about life there. Not only was there a chance to learn about them you also learn a lot about yourself, getting out of your comfort zone and dealing with a vastly different culture and way of life helps put things into perspective. Even the experiences we got to have such as going on a sailboat and watching the sunset or snorkeling with dolphins helped give back to the local communities. Truly everything was thought out. From Yoga and morning swims to the construction process of the school, there was not one thing that I felt wasn't thought out. This was the best experience I've ever had. Make it yours too.
