GIVE Laos Trip

GIVE is an absolutely incredible organization and you would be silly to chose anyone else. When you travel with GIVE you are fully immersed in the culture, you live and feel like a local. In Laos you get the amazing opportunity to visit Sop Chem, a beautiful village on the Nam Ou River, it is a wonderful and welcoming community and words will never be enough to describe how amazing and kind the people are. The GIVE Laos program also offers the ability to zip line over the Kaung Sii Falls which are GORGEOUS! We also get to visit Free the Bears and learn about Sun and Moon bear conservation, which as an animal lover was truly awesome. I also was able to learn about the impacts of UXO and the Indochina War on Laos which was very eye opening for me as an American because before that moment I had no idea that Laos has suffered, and continues to suffer at the hands of the United States. One of my all time favorite moments though was hiking a literal mountain and then having hot pot for dinner and getting to camp on said mountain - once and a lifetime experience all thanks to GIVE. So Give GIVE a try, you absolutely will not regret it!!!
