I can’t even describe it in words how this trip has impacted me – it truly has changed my life

This trip will impact my future in every way possible. I was humbled during many parts of this trip, which will carry onto my future. PR will always be in my heart, especially the family that we helped along the way.

This trip was amazing and really helped me find myself and learn about the world around me. I would 100% recommend this trip to anyone and will be taking another GW trip. Thank you for an amazing experience that will stay with me forever!
