"It was unforgettable. Go for it. You meet amazing friends and make genuine connections. The mentors are also an amazing resource while your there and I appreciated having them."

"My daughter keeps telling people that, 'It was the experience of a lifetime, the best thing I've ever done.' To hear these words every time that someone asks makes it worth the cost and nerves of sending her abroad. She read us her journal in the car front to back and told us all that she learned about being a leader and how much she learned about herself."
