Winter Break 2019 Participant
The elements of the program I found most rewarding was being able to walk the streets in Cuba. Being on the ground standing in front of significant places, it was a world of difference to reading about it in an article of textbook.

Winter Break 2017 Participant
It's important to do research before so once you're in the country you are as prepared as you can be.

Megan Martin, Winter Break 2017 Participant
Talk to the locals and your guides! Everyone is really friendly, and extremely happy to help you out in finding something in particular or even just having a conversation. I had a lot of really interesting experiences just because I struck up banter with a street vendor or asked a question about something.
