"Every place you visit, every person you meet...there is a story to be shared. I want to hear and be touched by those stories, and I want to learn more."
"Zambia opened my mind to a whole new world. It was the trip of a lifetime; I couldn't have asked for a better experience personally and as an educator."
"The best part was unplugging and realizing I really hadn't been on my phone until we got back to the resort each night."
"I’ve realized that I feel most purposeful and happy when I’m able to provide quality education to students living in impoverished or struggling communities."
"While talking with previous travelers in our class really prepared me for travel, bonding with the group during travel truly strengthened the experience."
"Class sizes were enormous but there was no technology available. The experience showed me that children don’t need lots of high-tech 'stuff' to learn."
"Going to Zambia allowed me a direct experience with an African country, and to obtain an accurate and unbiased narrative of its culture and people."
"Many students were shocked to learn that not everyone in America is financially stable. This knowledge - that America is not perfect, that we have our own problems - seemed to give them a sense of hope for their own country."
