"... a unique opportunity to travel throughout a country, absorbing the culture and developing a strong connection with your destination ."
- Sophie Zawacki, student in Antarctica and New Zealand.
"I did things I never thought I would be able to do. I kayaked, hiked on a glacier, climbed Mt, Cook, and even lived with a Fijian family. I made life long friends, and had the most incredible experiences that people can only dream of. The trip was life changing, and one that I will always cherish."
