Southeast Asia is a fascinating melting pot of history, peoples, diverse cultures, and dramatic landscapes ideally suited to an extraordinary educational travel experience. The program has a strong experiential focus. Students get involved in service-learning projects; have opportunities for meaningful connections with local people; gain knowledge of Southeast Asia's history, societies, and environments; push personal boundaries and develop their leadership skills.
When we look at a map, we tend to lump these countries together and assume they’re all the same. Yet nothing is further from the truth. Thailand is traditional culture fused with an embrace of our modern globalized world. Laos is relaxed, languid, and seemingly half-forgotten. Vietnam is a shot of adrenalin, full of stimulus, and culturally rich. Cambodia just gets under your skin and into your heart in a way that no other country does. In fact, we feel that the region can’t be beat for the sheer diversity of cultures, histories, and landscapes in a geographically small area.
