Time truly flies. It seems like just yesterday we had all met in LA and embarked on our journey through South America. The last 3 months have been an incredible experience. I was a bit pessimistic at first about leaving my comfortable surroundings and being away from home for 3 months. After all this time though I can say that I am thankful for having participated in this trip. The trip pushed me physically and mentally. It helped me mature and opened my eyes to the world and appreciate myself and others. I would reccomend this program to anyone thinking about travelling or being a part of a gap year program. Thank You Carpe Diem for a great experience!
