Lita Summer 2025

I had an amazing time on this trip. I was on the North 5 week trip, and we got to see a lot of different regions of Spain, from Galicia, Basque Country, Castile Leon and Catalonia. In each region, we had activities with locals who lived in worked in these communities. While we did som "traditional touristy" activities, it was always guided by a local. Many things I experienced I don't think I would have gotten on a trip with my family, like when we interviewed locals about their life in Galicia and after they taught us traditional card games. The time in the host community was amazing, I had a great time getting to know my family, and I took the classes sos I still got to see the people from my group everyday. The leaders and monitors were the best. They made sure we knew that we could go to them for anything we needed or any problems we had, no matter how small, and they were truly there for us. I got to try a lot of new food, meet a lot of new people, and form friendships that will last me a life time.
