It Was Life-Changing

I think the program was set up excellently. We started by staying in a hostel with the group called Clarissa Falls. This allowed everyone to create relationships with one another. Then we traveled to the village of El Progresso and each one of us was paired with another student. The two of us were then each given a host family which made me a lot less nervous since I wouldn't be alone. I know I personally grew extremely close to my host family during the stay and living the way they did changed my views on many things. I believe I have become a wiser, stronger, more independent person from this program. Plus, after the host family stay we were able to experience the more touristy parts of Belize and got to go snorkeling. It was all in all an incredible experience and I highly recommend it.
