Winter Break 2022 Participant
For me the most rewarding aspect of the program was having the opportunity to work with Rutas Naturbanas and Universidad Veritas to generate new conceptual ideas for the Rutas Naturbanas project.

Winter Break 2022 Participant
My favorite part of this program was experiencing all of the diverse ecosystems of Costa Rica and immersing myself in the local cultures and foods.

Winter Break 2022 Participant
I learned that Costa Rica has a completely different culture to the United States. I found the people of Costa Rica to be more open and helpful to strangers compared to the U.S.
