Incredible Journey Through Ecuador and the Galapagos!!
I was lucky enough to travel to Ecuador and the Galapagos last year on ARCC's summer program. It was the absolute perfect combination of adventure, laughter and community service. From rafting, snorkeling with sea lions and turtles, ziplining to building a kitchen for a local community, this trip had it all. One of my favorite moments was when we were working in a community and it started dumping rain. I remember how we were playing music and we were all singing and working as hard as we possibly could, no matter the circumstances. Not only was the trip itinerary fabulous, but our group leaders were fantastic. They helped us bond almost immediately and they were full of fun activities and stories. I would do this trip again in a heartbeat. I hope some others are lucky enough to go on this adventure!

I was nervous to send my daughter on this 3 week trip - but it turned into a trip of a lifetime for her. The two counselors were terrific - fun and well trained - and they did a phenomenal job of leading this group. She met lots of friends who she is still connected to. The days were action packed and so adventurous. The work days were fun because they were in it together and were able to see the results of their efforts. My daughter couldn't believe how fast the trip went and she returned home with more confidence and a sparkle in her eye about her next travel adventure!
