Testimonies

I’ve been on three of these tips traveling around the United States, and the memories that I have will last me a lifetime.  I’ve seen more than many of my peers will see in an entire lifetime.  Not only was I exposed to the raw beauty of U.S. national parks, but I also got to bond with people of similar culture and age.  It’s a different type of friendship, and I still consider some of these people my close friends even after several years.  I would recommend anyone interested in traveling to take advantage of these trips.  The program is very rich and there are plenty of things to see, which seems impossible to fit in the span of two weeks, but the overall layout is very relaxed, well organized, and most importantly: safe.  In my instance, the trip inspired me to get my bachelors in Environmental Science.  After seeing all of the natural, untouched beauty I wanted to devote my life to making sure that places like this will continue to exist in the world, so future generations can see and appreciate nature as I did.

The youth trip has positively inspired me. I traveled hundreds of miles, visited many places and met interesting people. I would recommend this trip to anyone looking for an amazing experience. Memories like these never fade away. You can learn a lot about nature, people, and most importantly you discover yourself.

Sun sets on various corners of the earth made the most impression on me. These phenomena cannot be described, you just have to see them live. I was also fascinated by the simplicity that bypasses us in everyday life. The sound of the sea and rivers, the rustle of leaves in the trees and the stars at night in the sky seemed so underestimated and forgotten. In everyday run, we forget about what is important. Such trips allow us to reflect and recall what is important in life and valuable.

Yes, after coming back from a trip like that I noticed that one trip is not enough. I wanted to discover new corners of the world and make more connections with the nature. Sometimes we have to leave the comfort zone, but we have to remember that no one will take away what we have experienced and what we have seen. Moving away from materialistic matters, we become free, full of energy and eager to live. We start to enjoy and appreciate the small things in our life.

Certainly, after such a trip, we appreciate mother's earth for what is beautiful, but also for how much we need to take care of her so that our future generations could also admire her in the same condition in which we had the opportunity to admire her. Travel trips wild adventures change our priorities and look at the world from a different perspective.

After returning from South America, deep changes took place in me. I decided to be grateful every day for what I own and for who I am. In Peru, I met people who almost did not have anything and enjoyed what they have. They lived each day with a smile, carefree. Looking at them, I stopped missing what I do not have, but use what I have and be happy with it. "

Galapagos made the biggest impression on me. It is unique, there is no such symbiosis of man with nature anywhere else. One moment was stuck in my mind: Natalia was already talking about him. It was on Galapagos, by the beach, where we ate dinner. I followed the herd of elephants to the town. I saw one tiny seal, emaciated, lost and scared: she was looking for a mother. She was approaching more and more to other females, but they were growling at her and chased away, squealing crawling away. In the end she hugged to a flock and fell silent. For a moment I felt very far away from home, family and best friends. I stood on the edge of the island in the middle of the ocean, a thousand kilometers from the mainland.
