Most impactful experience of my life.

This program introduced me to a wonderful community of people and a set of families whom I now share a deep bond with. In fact, I still stay in contact with my homestay mother. From an environmental perspective, living in Zanzibar is just about the best place you can go given the sheer amount of pristine beaches, forests, and wildlife. Living in and learning about its natural environment has deeply impacted my collegiate studies and views towards our current world environment. Learning to persist through the highs and the lows of the program has undoubtedly led to immense personal growth.
