I just wanted to thank you for everything you did to provide me with the most amazing experience of my life. We've only been home for 48 hours but I am missing Nicaragua and everyone in our group desperately!  If you were to tell me a few years...

My GW experience challenged me and helped me become a more independent mature person.

I learned about and fell in love with the Nicaraguan culture. I love the hardworking and dedicated spirit of everyone we met. All of the locals were so friendly and patient with us and I loved that we got to share so much.
